Student, parent, teacher conferences are this week.  If you have not yet signed up for a conference, please go to this link to do so.

We started our spelling program, Words Their Way, this week.  In September, the students took a Spelling Inventory. This inventory placed them on a spelling continuum.  The list that your child started at today is where he or she falls on the continuum. I will give another inventory in February and then May.  On Monday, I will go through the word sort with each group and discuss the activities for the week.  These activities will be worked on each day during ELA Center Time.  They are due on Friday.  We will not take spelling tests. This spelling program gives students strategies to use while they write and read.  It is not about memorizing words for a test.
