Please Note: Due to Snow Days, there are a couple of weeks were extending in order to have student mastery. If your child has
already practiced these spelling words, please have them continue to practice and apply the spelling patterns in their writing.

Spelling Words are on top, and tricky words are below! Challenge words will be given weekly (during the spelling test) and
will be words that contain our weekly skill spelling pattern. Challenge words are given in order to see which students can
know and apply previous and current phonics skill for level 4 understanding!
