Spelling Information for the Week of February 8, 2016 to

February 11, 2016

Dear Parents,

Red Words

There will be no new red words this week. Please review all first, second, and third quarter words that have already been taught.

Green Words

This week our students will be learning about “r-Controlled Vowels.” They are introduced as the three / ə r /’s or the bossy r. The first of the three will be the spelling er which is the most frequently used. It should be the first choice when making an educated guess about how to spell a word with an / ə r /.

There will be no spelling practice other than the bossy r dictation pages that will be completed on Monday, and Wednesday in the classroom. Please practice these words as your child brings them home. Weekly spelling words will come from the dictation pages or words that have a similar bossy r pattern.

Please note that this week’s final spelling test will be on Thursday, February 11, 2016.

Thank you,

Mrs. Arp
