Spelling

Spelling is a very important part of a first graders reading and writing experience. Spelling words will come home in their Monday Homework Folder. These words are drawn from our reading-writing experiences. Each Friday I will give the spelling test. Please help your child study these words at home. Also know that correct penmanship will count toward the spelling grade. If a word has a backwards letter, capitalization or incorrect penmanship, it will be counted wrong. Their name is always counted as a spelling word. I pass out bubble gum to those who receive 100% on their spelling test.
