[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What level of spelling words are they learning anyway in 1st grade?[/quote] We have a "first hundred sight words" list. Under each word there is a check list for read and spell. At some point my child will be tested on those. [/quote] My daughter had these in K in private school in VA. She had to learn them by the end of the year. She's in 3rd now and has at least 2 tests/quizzes a week - one usually being a reading assessment. She has an hour of homework a night, too. She's not stressed, as we don't make a big deal out of it, but there are so many emails on the listserv that it makes me wonder how these parents make it through each day. [/quote]
