Other examples of digraphs are&nbsp;<strong>th<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>ch<\/strong>, and&nbsp;<strong>ph<\/strong>.<br><br><strong>Spelling words:&nbsp;<\/strong>when, wheel, what, which, where, white, while, whale, wheat,&nbsp;<strong>once<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rule:<\/strong>&nbsp;WH is used to represent the unvoiced \/w\/ sound. (That means you don\u2019t vibrate your vocal chords when making the sound. Put your hand on your throat and feel the difference when you say&nbsp;<strong>was<\/strong>&nbsp;compared to&nbsp;<strong>what<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Notes:<\/strong>&nbsp;This could be a challenging week! Check out the notes below to help your child with any specific spellings that might be tricky. It is ok to reduce your list to the first five words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>wh<strong>ee<\/strong>l contains the double e which represents the long e sound.<\/li><li>wh<strong>a<\/strong>t can be tricky to remember because the letter a represents the \/u\/ sound like in up. (We call that a lazy vowel or the schwa sound.)<\/li><li>wh<strong>i<\/strong>te, wh<strong>i<\/strong>le, and wh<strong>a<\/strong>le&nbsp;all have the magic e at the end which makes the vowel in the middle make the long sound.<\/li><li>wh<strong>ere<\/strong>&nbsp;looks like it has a magic e but the \u201ce-r-e\u201d is a tricky spelling for ai-r. I like to remember it by thinking about the meaning of the word- where&nbsp;has the word here in it. Where? Here.<\/li><li>wh<strong>ea<\/strong>t has the vowel digraph&nbsp;<strong>ea<\/strong>, which can spell the long e, short e, or long a sound. In this word, it spells the long e sound like in&nbsp;<strong>ea<\/strong>t. We&nbsp;<strong>ea<\/strong>t wh<strong>ea<\/strong>t. Compare this to how the long e sound is spelled in wheel.<\/li><li><strong>once<\/strong>&nbsp;is our super tricky sight word. The o does double duty representing two sound \/w\/ line&nbsp;<strong>w<\/strong>in and \/u\/ like&nbsp;<strong>u<\/strong>p. The c in this word comes before an e so it is pronounced \/s\/ like in&nbsp;<strong>c<\/strong>ircle or&nbsp;<strong>c<\/strong>enter. The e is silent.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/tallutl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2552\/2020\/03\/SpellingWordActivitiesChoiceMenu-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Read your book bag books and books on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kidsa-z.com\/main\/Login\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Raz Kids<\/a>&nbsp;every day.&nbsp;<br><strong>You should complete at least 2 quizzes on Raz Kids everyday (10 per week).<\/strong>&nbsp;I will be able to see your quiz scores each time you take a quiz, so read carefully and look back in the book to check your answers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Math<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We will begin with reviewing the lessons we have completed so far in Module 4 on&nbsp;Zearn&nbsp;before moving on.
