Fundations

The students will be held accountable for all the spelling words and 
word families that we have studied.  The focus is on the spelling 
strategy NOT the memorization of the word.

We are continuing Unit 12. According to Fundations, the children will be learning about the 
suffix ending -es and plural words.  Please refer to the Fundations packet that was sent 
home last Monday.
This week the children will continue to practice "trick words".  
These words have been previously referred to as sight words.  The 
trick words require a lot of practice as thet are NOT words that 
should be sounded out. Please practive the trick words at home as 
well. 
Students will be held accountable for correctly spelling all trick 
words learned throughout the year.
