Spelling Information for the Week of December 2, 2019 to December 6, 2019
Dear Parents,
Red Word Focus
RF.2.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.
The Red Words for the week will be all of the 2nd quarter Red Words. The Red Words are as follows: many, also, black, these, why, around, don’t, push, it’s, its, eye, above. This will be a summative test and will be noted as such in Progress Book.
Green Word Pattern Focus
RF.2.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding word.
Many words in our language have more than one pronunciation, spelling, or meaning. We encounter sounds that are spelled the same but sound differently which is the case with this week’s Green Word pattern of –ew. The –ew in grew sounds the same as the /oo/ in zoo.
The -ew in few sounds the same as the /u/, u-consonant – magic e sound as in cute. Please practice all –ew Green Word pattern words as your child brings them home on dictation pages. Weekly spelling words may come from the dictation pages. Students will be expected to apply all classroom information to ten or more “-ew” words on their Friday spelling test.
Reading Focus
Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text.
Know and use various text features (e.g., captions, bold print, subheadings, glossaries, indexes, electronic menus, icons) to locate key facts or information in a text efficiently.
Explain how specific images (e.g., a diagram showing how a machine works) contribute to and clarify a text.
The students will complete the reading of the selections, “Pilgrims” and “What Was The First Thanksgiving?” The students will also take a vocabulary and a comprehension/text feature/graphic feature test over the selections.
Homework
For homework, please write the Red Words 5 times each on the back of this sheet. The spelling test will be on Friday, December 6, 2019, and will include all of the 2nd quarter Red Words and the Green Word pattern, -ew.
Thank you,
Mrs. Arp, Mr. Inman
