Spelling Words

Hello everyone,

I'm sharing a list of spelling words I brainstormed for my colleagues at school to use this year. It certainly isn't comprehensive, but it's a start. The way they'll fit into my spelling program is I will use them as examples of words that use certain spelling patterns.

Is everyone having a good year? Quilt contact information will be coming soon. Go ahead and get started on those squares!
