Homework
All homework can be found on the corresponding week in your child's planner. Usually any extra activities for the week can be found there also.
Spelling-Word lists are sent home weekly in student's planner. Students are given a pre-test each week. Words to study are highlighted in yellow. If a word is not highlighted your child spelled it correctly on the pretest. Students need to choose 3 activities from the Tic Tac Toe activity sheet found in the back of their planner for homework. Use the highlighted words for these activities. Tic Tac Toe activity sheets will be changed at the end of each grading period. Students may also do Spelling City activities for homework. Be sure to print out and send in the activity. Spelling homework is due on Thursday. Be ready for the test on Friday.
