SPECIAL NOTE RE: SPELLING

PARENTS:  THIS WEEK WE WILL START OUR SPELLING LESSONS WITH LIST 1.  THESE LISTS COME DIRECTLY FROM OUR PHONICS LESSONS AND WORDS SHOULD BE FAMILIAR TO THE CHILDREN.  WE WILL DO SOME PRACTICE IN SCHOOL; BUT, THE STUDENTS WILL NEED TO PRACTICE AT HOME AS WELL.  WE START THE YEAR WITH 10 WORDS; THE LISTS WILL GET LONGER AND MORE DIFFICULT.

EVERY WEEK WE WILL HAVE A PRACTICE TEST ON THURSDAY.  IF YOUR CHILD EARNS A 100, THEN S/HE WILL NOT HAVE ANY SPELLING HOMEWORK THAT NIGHT AND THEY WILL NOT NEED TO TAKE THE TEST AGAIN ON FRIDAY.  THEY WILL HAVE ABOUT 20 MINUTES OF "FREE" TIME IN THE CLASSROOM WHILE THE OTHER CHILDREN ARE RETESTED. THIS INCENTIVE TO STUDY AND EARN A 100 ON THURSDAY HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL IN THE PAST. ALSO, IF EVERYONE EARNS A 100 ON THURSDAY, THEN, THE TEACHER BAKES BROWNIES FOR FRIDAY.

OF COURSE, THERE WILL BE WEEKS WHEN THERE WILL BE HOLIDAYS OR STORMS AND THIS WILL THROW OUR SCHEDULE OFF.  I WILL TRY TO ALERT YOU AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO THE "ADJUSTED" SCHEDULE.  ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL ME OR CALL THE SCHOOL AND EXT. 3225.
