Spelling Information for the Week of November 28, 2016 to December 2, 2016

Dear Parents,

Green Word Study

Our “Green Word” pattern for the week will be learning about “vowel teams.” The vowel teams are often introduced by simply noting that “When two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking.” Green words or our two vowel teams are -ay, as in say, and -oe, as in toe. We practice spelling and writing words with “-ay and -oe” during class each day. Please practice these 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 “-ay and -oe” words on their Friday spelling test.

Vocabulary Study

Our spelling test will also include the reading vocabulary words translate, toupee, pageant, and exchange from our reading text, Miss Holly is Too Jolly!

Red Word Study

Our three new red words will be it’s, eye, and push. 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 these red words.

Please note that our final spelling test will be on Friday, December 2, 2016.

Thank you,

Mrs. Arp
