Some students have been given the option to redo a spelling test.   (Unit 31 ~  is one of the hardest units)  (l
I showed students a strategy of breaking a longer word up by syllables, and then write it down that way to help them learn the spelling.

(Unit 29 was the Days of the week and months if a students wants a second chance)

Reading: We read in My Side of the Mountain today. We read pages 107 - 112 and students had questions to be looking for while reading. Some students did not finish the questions and were asked to do them for homework.

Students should also be reading to meet their independent reading goals.
