With the second half of second grade finally in full swing (no thanks to all the snow days) I am beginning to assign more challenging spelling lists to increase your child's writing and reading skills. One of the most difficult changes for the students is the increase from 10 to 20 spelling words each week (with the exception of some weeks when we are continuing practice with commonly misspelled words from previous lessons). It is very important that your child is studying the spelling list for that week nightly. I have set up a Spelling City account for your child to use in order to make the studying process more enjoyable. Below, you will find a link to my Spelling City homepage with the current and past spelling lists available for study.
