Well! The time has finally come! We are starting our first spelling list this week. However, as you may well know by now, I never do things the usual way!

Each week on the Monday, you will find the spelling tests on the blog. You can practice them from there or you can download them and print them out. You will also notice a link to a site called, “Spelling City”. Each spelling list has been entered into the Spelling City site. From there, students can practice their words, play games with the words, download handwriting pages with the spelling words and test themselves to see whether they know all their words.

Special Bonus!!!!!!

I have also told the students that, if they complete the Spelling City test and show me that they have received 100% on it, they can earn a bonus mark on the spelling test they do on Friday. To get the extra mark, they can print out the certificate or report and bring it to me or they can get their parent to write in their planner that they got 100%. Because, the site is American, any Canadian spelling will be marked as incorrect. However, I will not count it as incorrect and would prefer that they continue to spell it the Canadian way. I will just count it as being correct.
