Busy Friday and Monday

Print-outs went home on Friday. I hope everyone looked at them. Students also wrote in their "Go-Home-Journals." If parents didn't see them, please ask for them. It is important that students receive feed-back on their weekly work.

Spellings tests that were given on Friday came home today. Please go over these with your child. This week's spelling words are different ways to spell the long-a sound and one way to spell short-a sounds. Students should practice sorting the words into the different spelling patterns. Learning the spelling patterns will help them apply spelling rules to new words. We practiced sorting the words and learned the spelling rule today in class. The test on Friday will have students writing the words in the correct groups and spelling them correctly. There will also be a few (2-3)sentences to write.

Mighty math achievers for Friday included: Payton, Jace, Rylan, and Stetler. Today the following students passed their drill: Payton, Jasa, Tyler, Rylan, Ricky, Stetler, and Sierra. Sierra passed off level 1B, and Abbie passed off Level 1C. Congratulations!
