Kindergarten Spelling

This week marks the beginning of the second semester.  As part of the Dearborn Public Schools English Language Arts Program, we will now begin administering spelling tests each Friday.  The spelling test will include 2 high frequency words we have been working on as well as 6 words with a specific spelling pattern.  For example, this week’s words will be from the -at family.

Students will be given 6 words from the -at family to study during the week.  Students will be given several opportunities to practice the words at school; however, it is important that they practice at home each night as well.  Attached are some flashcards that will help your child study the words.  We know this is new for the kids and right now we are focusing on the process not just the test results.

This week’s spelling words are:

Thank you for encouraging your child to practice their spelling words for 5-10 minutes each night.

Sincerely,

Ms. Jacobs, and Mrs. Harrison
