MEMORY—3rd and 4th grade
(Be able to recite on Friday)

Close of the Commandments Part 1
What does God say about all these commandments? He says: “I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate Me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.”



 NEXT WEEK'S MEMORY...

Close of the Commandments Part 2
What does this mean? God threatens to punish all who break these commandments. Therefore, we should fear His wrath and not do anything against them. But He promises grace and every blessing to all who keep these commandments. Therefore, we should also love and trust in Him and gladly do what He commands.

Word Sorts (Spelling)

Click below to open up copies of each group's word sort for the week.  The files can be opened with Adobe Acrobat.

Group A

Group B

Group C

 

Spelling Sorts:

Blind Sort: Lay down the headings or a word from each category as a header and then read the rest of the words aloud. Your child must indicate where the word goes without seeing it. Lay it down and let your child move it if he or she is wrong. Repeat if your child makes more than one error.

 

Speed Sort: Time your child while doing the sort, three separate times.  Record the times for each sort.

 

Writing Sort: The writing sort is like a practice test.  As you call out the words in a random order, your child should write them in categories. Call out any words your child misspells a second or even third time.
