Words of the Week

Please look in backpacks for a small beige piece of paper.  See how your child did on the spelling words from last week. 

New Words for this week are:
did
here
for
from

We talk about sky, grass and dirt letters when we are practicing printing neatly.

sky letters are tall (t, h, b, d)
grass letters are short (a, n, c, r)
dirty letters dangle down (g, y, j,)

In class we often play guess the word with body spelling.  A student will stand up and body spell a word from the list i.e.,
- reach for the sky
- touch their hips
- touch their hips

Then students would guess what word they spelled.  In this case they have one sky letter and two grass letters.  This word would be for.  Try out this game at home!
