Spelling 11/17-11/21

Dear Parents,
Please note that this week we have two dictation sentences and 4 challenge words. Starting this now will give me a chance to see how the class does with dictation sentences. If the class does not do well I will go back to doing our spelling words the way we have been doing it. The sentences and words are sounds and spelling we have already done in class. Student should be familiar with short a and words ending with /k/ spelled ck. I have provided a sheet for spelling homework so they can study the sentences and words. Good Luck!

Dictation Sentences:
1. There is nothing here in this black sack.
2. When did Jack pack your snack?

Challenge Words:
slacks knack backpack crackers

Students will be graded on correct punctuatuation and capitalization. Points will be deducted if they leave these out. Also practice writing sentences with spaces between words.

November Updates and sight word list

November

Dear Parents,
November is a busy month. There will be no Spelling words nor test this week since it is so short. I will ask you to please review the following sight words with your child. They should be able to recognize most of them. I will be testing them one on one to see which words they need to work on. I’ll be sending you the list back with the words they need to work on circled in red. Following are a few updates for the month:

11/13 Clothespin doll project due. Please remember to study the index card with the information for their oral report.
11/14 Bring a dollar this Friday and wear Jeans with a school top (either PE shirt or white polo) No dollar, No jeans
11/17-11/21 Oral reports (this might be extended into the next week if we don’t finish)
11/19 Wed. Bake sale send in 50 cents
11/25 We will be making butter on Wednesday the 25th, if you have Gerber jars with lids please send them in.

We will be collecting recyclable bottles and cans. Please send these in on Friday 11/21. The class that collects the most will get a rootbeer float party. We want to win!!!
