Spelling
The third grade Spelling curriculum is based on the Brown
Level of the McGougal, Littell program. We also include cross-curricular
words to allow the children to work with words introduced throughout all
subject areas such as Religion, Science, Math, etc. During the typical
third grade week, the students have a pretest on Wednesday and a test on
Friday. The grading for each week's Spelling test is as follows:
* 18 words at 5 points each (90%)
* A sentence incorporating spelling, grammar, capitalization,
and punctuation graded at 10 points (10%)
* Together these total 100 pts./100%
