Fundations-Spelling City
This year we are beginning an exciting program called Fundations. This program incorporates word study, fluency, comprehension, and spelling into one. Students will receive daily lessons in how words are ‘put together’ helping them to be both better readers and spellers. We are focussed more on how to read and spell words than memorizing them. There will be no specific word lists sent home each week rather work with unit words will take place in the classroom and on classroom computers via the Spelling City website. Students will be evaluated on their ability to work with words and make word families based on rules taught at the close of each unit. More can be found on the Fundations website and activities can be accessed below by class on Spelling City both at home and at school.
