Each week students will have new list of words with a specific phonetic rule or spelling pattern to work on. Students will receive a Choice menu  that will offer a variety of activities to help promote mastery of the pattern or rule being addressed.  Students are required to complete one activity from each column.  Each column allows the student three different choices to practice a specific skill.  The first column is focused on the spelling of each word, the second column is focused on developing critical writing skills and the third column is designed to be working on various literary skills.  Choice menus and lists will be distributed on Mondays and due on Fridays.  The word lists as well as the choice menu will also be available on the 3^rd grade web page.
