Level 4, Fall 2012, 10:15

Welcome to level 4!  If you want to do some extra homework, you can check out my blog about once a week.  I post spelling lists, songs and other things to help you practice your English. Below is a short spelling list of some of the words we had from the first week.  These were words that weren't in the book so I thought you might like some extra practice.

Have fun!
