Spelling

Spelling Practice Tests are now given on Monday also. Students who score an A on these practice tests are exempt from the regular spelling words for that lesson. They will be given an accelerated list of words for that week. Grades will indicate that these students are working at an advanced level. No one will be required to do the advanced list if they choose not to. Please contact me by e-mail or steno if you prefer your child not be given the advanced list.

Advanced Spelling Lists

Spelling Pre-tests are usually given on Thursdays.

Students who score 100 on the Pre-test are exempt from the test on Friday.

If a student receives a lower score on Friday the higher grade will be recorded.
