Spelling and Vocab Words for "Because of You"

Our Reading Story This Week is "Because of You." The students will have a vocabulary and comprehension test about this story on Friday. We will read the story multiple times in class and do lots of comprehension, reading strategy lessons, and extension activities in whole and small groups throughout the week. Please have your child read this story aloud to you on Thursday night before the assessment and review all spelling words and vocab definitions. This will be the procedure for Thursday nights before test days.

Also, please have your child do a practice spelling test to review for Friday's spelling test. There will be a spelling pattern or two every week that we work on in class and their spelling words match the weekly patterns.  This week's patterns are Long "i" and "a".
