Students & Parents,

Students will take a Spelling pretest to see which word list is within his/her instructional range. The score on this test, will determine which Spelling list will be the most appropriate for each student.

Scores ------------------- Spelling List Level
0 to 50% ---------------- Approaching List
51% to 70% ----------- On-Level List
71% to 100% ---------- Beyond List

Students are expected to complete several activities at school and/or at home, including sentence and paragraph writing activities, and tests on SpellingCity. Several writing videos will be shown to clarify the writing tasks. Please be advised that spelling tests, vocabulary tests, and writing activities will count as grades.

If a computer and the internet is available at home, students should use SpellingCity as his/her Spelling homework. If not, they should choose activities from the Spelling Homework sheet.
