Week of October 5 - Homework Schedule

Since the majority of the school is at Hulbert, we will be the faithful ones to remain behind to work!

We will follow a very similar schedule with some minor changes since some of our teachers are away.

• Martial Arts with Jason.
• Wordly Wise: Finish making flashcards (white ones) with the vocabulary word on one side and the definition on the back. This week's words are: alight, archer, cathedral, crew, hoof, instruct, linger, miser, observe, swarm, weary and wily.

***Last week's words are on the ring. All cards should be kept in the plastic bag to keep all words together. Please review the spelling and definitions of the WW words. Dolch Words (most commonly used words) need to be reviewed for spelling only.***
