During the 2025-2026 school year, you will be learning spelling words from our Sadlier Reading series.  Each list of words will have specific phonic patterns that help the students learn in school. 

You will have 12 total spelling words. 10 of the spelling words will be worth 10 points a piece and 2 of the spelling words will each be worth three points extra credit.  You will only need to know how to spell the words, not which of the categories they have.

Words will be posted on both this weblog tab as on your Vocabulary/Spelling Google Classroom page.
