Spelling Choices
Lego City’s Spelling Activity Choices
Directions: Each night the students will be focusing on the ten spelling words we learned in class that day. A normal school week will include thirty spelling words in a week. You may only do each activity one time per week. Monday-Wednesday you will choose a separate spelling activity totaling three activity choices. Please write the date on each spelling assignment. I would appreciate it if each assignment is on a separate sheet of paper. Thursday will be the Spelling Pre Test and students will write each misspelled word eight times each. Please be prepared Thursday morning with the three spelling activity choices from the week. Friday will be the Spelling Test and students will turn in the misspelled words assignment if they missed any words.
