Homework for Snow/Ice Day - February 9, 2011

Homework was sent in your child's take home folder yesterday, just in case we had another bad weather day.  If you are able to work on it with your child, please do!  Help them locate the answers in the passages.  Guide them to look back in the passage to prove the answer.

They are not expected to do the work on their own.  You can help them with these assignments.

We will have our spelling test on Friday for the spelling words from last week.  Our spelling pattern is prefixes ( re, un ) and suffixes ( ly, ful ).  Here are the words from last week:

repay, likely, kind, joyful,

bravely, wrap, pay, unlike,

retry, useful, unkind, joy,

play, like, unwrap, replay,

brave, reuse, playful, try, use
