This is a W Day.

ALL GRADES:

Do you have knowledge of etymology, word roots, and spelling patterns from English and other languages?  If so, the spelling club is the club for you.  Join us to learn the most commonly misspelled words and those feisty words that don’t fit any pattern.  We will kick off the spelling club by watching the movie Akeelah and the Bee Tuesday, December 4 and Thursday, December 6 in room 107 from 2:50 – 4:00 PM.  You may bring a snack and a drink.  Mrs. Olsen & Mrs. Gilmore
