Dear Families,
This week, grade 2 students will be starting our Independent Spelling Program.
At the beginning of the week, students will choose 5 words from their individualized spelling lists to practice. They will bring a small list home to keep you informed and facilitate home practice. There will be several opportunities to practice their words in class. At-home practice is optional.
At the end of the week, students will do testing with a buddy.
Students's spelling lists will be developed from assessments on the high frequency word lists as well as their own work., so the words they are learning are individualized and relevant to their learning. This program is designed to improve accuracy and automaticity for spelling of high frequency words, as well as independence.
As always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Ms. Thomas
