This week in Wonders we have been focusing on long /a/ spelling patterns.  It can be tricky to focus on all of these patterns at once, especially the first week back from vacation.  This week we have also continued to practice identifying and using verbs.  This has also given us the opportunity to practice and review nouns, as well.  This week we have introduced, and will be practicing contractions.  We will continue to learn more, next week, as well.
