We are done with practicing NEW Spelling words for the year! Therefore, now it is time to review our High Frequency Words :) We will break up the words across the next 3 weeks and students will be tested on about 25 words each week. This sounds like A LOT, but keep in mind we have been practicing these all year. It may be best to look at the list and focus on the "trickier" words for your student. When doing the Spelling Menu homework, feel free to pick and choose which words your student really needs to practice instead of all of them! We appreciate any home support you can offer as we get ready to be 2nd Grade Spellers :)
NWEA MAP Assessment
We will complete the ELA and Math MAP(Measures of Academic Progress) Assessments on Tuesday, April 30 and Thursday, May 2. On these days, in particular, it is important that your child is well rested, has eaten a healthy breakfast, and is on-time to school. Students are encouraged to continue to bring a water bottle and healthy snack to school if they do not do so already.
