week of March 12-16

Hey!!

First and foremost I would like to thank those who volunteered for Dr. Seuss Day.  We appreciate your time and effort, as always. 

Here is a list of spelling words for this week.  These words don't really have a theme except they are sight words your child needs to know by the end of 3rd grade.  Along with the spelling test on Friday these words will serve as the vocabulary test portion as well.  Be on the lookout in your child's backpack for the definitions of these words either Monday or Tuesday.  Click here for online dictionary we use in class.
