Cursive handwriting pages are sent home daily so you can see how your student is progressing and which letters we have covered. I do NOT need these pages back. Feel free to have your student do additional practice if they have not completed the page.
Print handwriting is only sent home for a select group of students who need additional practice. If your student is brining home print homework, they should return it daily.
Spelling words for this week are quick, thumb, phone, phantom, comb, graph, limb, quack, quilt, quiz, phase, crumb. Additional words with the same patterns are under the shopping list. Our three patterns are: "qu" words where "q" and "u" combine to make a single sound; "ph" words where "p" and "h" combine to make a single sound; and "mb" words where the "b" is silent. There is no change in how you should practice spelling words. The only difference is I sent them home in a paper format to make sure everyone saw them as some families have limited access to the internet. (See previous newsletter posting regarding sending them home differently and additional exercises you can do.)
