Spelling Bingo
Students, your homework for this week will be a bit different. Instead of using the usual
spelling contracts, you will use the bingo sheet. You are to choose 5 activities from the
bingo “board”. When you complete an activity, cross it off on the sheet. You need to
complete 5 in a row, vertical, horizontal, or diagonal. We will have time to complete one
in class, so you can do one per night, or more if you want a “free night” of spelling. If it
is a written activity, please attach it to this with a stapler. If it is one of the verbal
activities, please have your parent initial the box as we discussed in class. Have fun!!
