Spelling for term 2

Our spelling program for term 2 will consist of each boy choosing 10 words from a list to practice each week for a spelling test every Friday.

I will put our spelling lists on a tab above over the weekend so you are able to see the list the boys are selecting from. Some boys will be also given extension words.

We have a text book accompanying our list words this term that focuses strongly on graphemes (spelling patterns and sounds). Since we are using a text it is close to impossible for the boys to do any activity without it and therefore I do not want the text books to come home. You are more than welcome to pop into our classroom to see what we are doing in spelling anytime though.

Spelling words will now be copied into students diaries and they need to get have their diaries signed every night for times tables, spelling and reading.
