[quote=Anonymous]Teacher sent home a letter saying that the class would be having weekly spelling tests. Furthermore, words spelled using the wrong letter case would be scored as 0, even if they are otherwise spelled correctly. I am not someone who objects to homework in K, nor opposed to having a more academic focus in K, but this seems extreme. Dock some points for not using the correct letter case, sure. But at this age shouldn't penmanship be a little less important than understanding the overall concept of matching letters to sounds?[/quote]
