Words To Learn – Last week, I had almost half the class not complete their homework by either not sending it back to school or returning it missing work on the Words To Learn side of the sheet.  Those sheets have the Spelling Review (weekly spelling test) on one side a blank Words To Learn (to be studied) on the other side.  Students are expected to study each word they get wrong on the review by printing it on the Words To Learn side, left column, then spell it out loud, cover it, write it again on the right column, and then check that it is correct.  If a student gets a perfect score, they are expected to look up 3 words in the dictionary they wish to learn.  Therefore, I expect the sheet to come back with at least 3 words down both columns to show me that they have studied.   I would like to encourage you to press on and continue to check homework, sign planners, etc. in these last few weeks of the school year.
If you have any further questions, please stop by or send me an email! :)
