Spelling Words


When we start our spelling words in class (yes Kindergarten has spelling words) I will send a note home along with a list of words. Spelling words will start out with basic sight words that your child will be very familiar with. Expect spelling homework to start some time after Thanksgiving Break. If you are interested in knowing what to expect, below you will find some extra information.



 Every Monday, I will send home a new list of five words for students to work on for the week. Students are to complete one of the following activities EACH NIGHT as a part of their homework routine. On Friday, we will have a spelling test.

Spelling Activities

~Write the spelling words using different writing utensils: pens, pencils, crayons, colored pencils, wax crayons, markers, chalk, bingo markers, etc.
