Your child will have spelling words each week unless it's a short week. Students will be focusing on specific patterns each week. Their word list will consist of no more than 12 words. Your child will have their word list in their Student Planner. They will also have their words in the classroom newsletter.
Throughout the week they will have activities/assignments that will help them better understand the pattern their working on in class. Spelling tests will be given on Fridays. They will receive their new word list on Mondays. Parents who use Class Messenger and check out this web page will be able to access the words earlier. All homework for spelling must be completed by Friday of that week.
Science/Social Studies
Your child will be learning about science and social studies throughout the year through our WIN Time. Our classroom will also have special projects/activities throughout the year to learn essential science and social studies skills. For example, students will be completing their pumpkin project in October. In Social Studies I'm hoping we will be able to do our Wax Museum project where the students learn about a Famous American.
