Spelling & Vocabulary

Students work on spelling and vocabulary throughout the school year. Each week, students take either a pre-quiz or a real quiz. Students who score exemplary on a pre-quiz are exempt from the real quiz. When we do vocabulary, students who score exemplary on their pre-quiz are also exempt from the homework. The homework is designed to help students prepare for the quiz. Students also do vocabulary cards to help them better understand the vocabulary words.

Quizlet is a free resource students can use to study their vocabulary words for Writing Workshop or any other class; for example, math, science, or foreign language.

Here is the list of 100 Commonly Misspelled Words. Students can re-take a spelling quiz after they show they are prepared by using one of the 20 ways to study suggestions.
