Spelling Information for the Week of January 17, 2017, to January 20, 2017

Dear Parents,

HOMEWORK: Write each red word and vocabulary word 5 times each for Wednesday’s homework. (brother, always, keyword, bold, glossary, illustration, caption)

Green Word Study

Our “Green Word” pattern for the week will be the spelling of /shun/ -- tion. When a student sees a tion in a word they can

1. Cut off the ending with a red pencil or with the “rule of thumb.

2. Read the word.

Please practice the tion 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 “tion” words on their Friday spelling test.

Vocabulary Study

Our spelling test will also include the reading vocabulary words bold, keyword, glossary, illustration, and caption from our informational reading texts throughout the week.

Red Word Study

Our two new red words will be brother and always. These words are non-decodable words and do not follow the rules of phonics. Please remember, each student must receive a 100 percent for two weeks in a row to receive a final grade for all red words.

Please note that our final spelling test will be on Friday, January 20, 2017.

Thank you,

Mrs. Arp
