Spelling & Vocabulary Words

Vocabulary Words

Vocabulary words are different from spelling words and won’t be tested each week. Instead, students will show their understanding of the vocabulary as part of the reading comprehension test that goes along with our story every two weeks. This helps us see how they are using the words in context, not just memorizing them.
