He took his spelling test which is in two parts this week. The first part is to spell his words correctly and the second part is to write 5 sentences as I dictate them selecting the correct spelling word to put in the blank. The sentences are graded on selecting the appropriate spelling word and in writing the sentences correctly using the proper punctuation and capitalization. We then reviewed his Wordly Wise words for his test on Monday. He took his book home to study the words and their meanings. He read a reading passage from the SSAT book and we discussed strategies on how to approach this type of reading activity to ensure he understands how to attack answering the questions effectively.
