5th Grade Spelling
This year the 5th grade teachers have come up with spelling activities to be completed in lieu of the traditional spelling packet. Each student will receive a spelling contract in which they are required to choose an activity from each category to complete. Completed projects will be worth 100 points total and turned in to their teacher on THURSDAY of each week.
We have placed the Harcourt links here so that you may print out your own spelling packets (if you choose that from your spelling contract)! Just click on the correct theme, it will take you directly to the Harcourt Website. Once you have found the current story, you may print out your packet. Let us know if you have any problems! Be sure to attach a front page with your words in ABC order to the front.
I have also included your words on Spelling City, a great website to practice your words with fun games for all!
