My Spelling Contract
By M&M Mom

Clip to ScrapBook   
kids have two choices each night:

Choose one activity to complete each night. Late or incomplete homework will be completed during specials and/or recess.

Monday
-Write each of your words 3 times (one under
the other - not all on the same line).

-Write each of your words once and underline all the vowels, then write the words again and underline all the consonants.

Tuesday
-Write two interrogative sentences (questions), three imperative sentences (commands), three exclamatory sentences, and two declarative sentences (statements). Each sentence must be at least 10 words
long. Use and underline at least one spelling word in each sentence. Label the sentences with IN (interrogative), IM (imperative), EX (exclamatory), or DE (declarative).

-Write a story that has 10 or more sentences. Use and underline at least 10 of your spelling words. The story must have a beginning, middle, and end and must make sense. If it doesnˇ¦t make sense, it will be written again during specials or recess.

Wednesday
-Write words in ABC order and then in reverse ABC order.

-Write a word triangle for each spelling word. Skip some space between words so they are easy to read!
Example:
c g t
ch gr ti
chi gri tip
chip grip

Thursday
-Write each word 3 times (going down the paper). Use a different color each time.

-Type each spelling word 3 times, using a different font each time.
