Daily Schedule
Spalding
For the first month of school, we will be focusing on reviewing Spalding phonograms as well as cursive writing. This will also be the time that students will be setting up their Spalding books by writing in rule pages before starting weekly spelling lists in September. Once that begins, spelling words will be posted here, in addition to being sent home, to practice for weekly spelling tests every Friday.
