2. I
3. she
4. he
5. me

Bonus Word HINT: ______ Cat in the ____ Hat
*The bonus word will be added to next week's 5 words too!


Dear Parents,
            This is just to let you know that every Monday your child will bring home 5 new spelling words to practise. However, you should know spelling does not count towards your child’s Language Arts mark. My spelling program is to encourage the recognition of words and use of phonics to help assist your child in becoming active in their reading and writing skills.
            To help your child with their writing please consider the following.
Visit this website to help your child learn the words:
http://www.spellingcity.com/ 
Give your child the opportunity to write down:
-         Shopping / Grocery lists
-         Writing stories
-         Keeping a journal/diary
-         Writing letters and cards for friends and family
-         Buying word cards from Dollarama
Are just a few ways to encourage your child to start writing.
Please visit http://fun-in-first-tpps.blogspot.com/ for other tips and what is going on in Room 137.
Have a great week,
Miss Mohammed
