Welcome to spelling! The fourth quarter of Kindergarten has begun! For the remainder of the school year, your child will have a weekly spelling test. The spelling words are selected form a word family, which allows your child not only to listen to letter sounds, but apply the rule. The challenge words are sight words. Your child will be expected to write a sentence using a challenge word.
A pretest will be given on Monday. As part of the weekly homework, please have your child trace and write the spelling words (and challenge words) as well as complete the challenge word work. The spelling tests will be on Thursday. The Kindergartners are doing great and are certainly up for this challenge.
There are two lists of words. If your child got all the words correct on the first pretest with short vowel sounds they were given a word family with long vowel sounds.
Please see the new spelling tab for more information and a list of the words.
