SPELLING LIST: 8 WORDS THIS WEEK!!!

sure, change, next, sound, himself, heard, while, didn’t


Here are some fun ideas to practice your spelling words each night.
  • Typing spelling lists on the computer is very motivating. Use the computer to write sentences for each spelling words.  It’s a great way to teach word processing skills.
  • Invest in a set of letter stampers and let your child stamp out their spelling words.
  • Give your child a Scrabble board.  Let them take the letters out of the bag, lay them on the table face-up, and try to fit all of their spelling words on the board.
  • Collage- cut individual letter from magazines to spell out your words.
  • Get a set of magnetic letters.  (You can find them cheap at garage sales.)  Give your child letters, a spelling list, and a timer.  See if they can complete it in 1-3 minutes.
  • Create a Wordle using your spelling words (Use the 5 High frequency words for this week)
Go to wordle.net, Have your child type in all of their spelling words and print off a cool wordle!
  • Go to SpellingCity.com and practice your spelling words, practice tests and play games. The username is your first and last name squished together with the #1 after it, The password is rams. example:johnsmith1 Accounts are set up!

Maps

This month in Social Studies we studied maps. Were learned about the compass rose, a map key, map grids, and much more! In the Mac lab we created a map of our bedrooms, using a key and a compass rose. Take a look at your child’s map, does it match what you see in their actual room?

Dollar Dress down and Read-a-thon tomorrow!

Tomorrow is Dollar Dress Down. If students dress down, they need to bring a dollar. We will be collecting them in the classroom. Due to a change in policy,anyone that does not bring a dollar will be asked to call home for a change of clothes or a dollar. Please be aware of this.

Read-a-thon: Thank you to those that brought back your bright green pledge sheets! Tomorrow they get to read!

I changed my mind….STUDENTS CAN BRING A PILLOW AND SMALL BLANKET TO SCHOOL TOMORROW for the read-a-thon.

Thanks for all your support!
