Spelling Tests
Our
first spelling test is on Friday, August 28. Rather than having the
students memorize lists to store in their short-term memories, we are
incorporating a methodology called Orton-Gillingham. Students will not
have to study phonetic concepts or spelling rules due to the constant
review and application based on previous knowledge. It is the
non-phonetic (red/sight) words that must be studied weekly. Weekly
spelling tests will contain both phonetic (green) and non-phonetic (red)
words, as well as sentence dictation. Please visit my Sarah Smith Teacher Page and click the homework tab for spelling information each each week.
