Spelling Test

So last week started official spelling tests at school for Benjamin. They had a practice test early in the week and Benjamin scored 100!! I was so excited for him. Now the "prize" for getting an A is that you get 5 'bonus' words for the real test on Friday. The regular spelling words were ones like "with" "you" "and" "snap" - the bonus words were "pilgrim" "indian" "thanksgiving" - I mean come on!!! Can we take smaller steps here? After practicing for the longest time and both me and Benjamin getting frustrated I decided to officially let it go! We will focus on the regular words and let the bonus be just that - bonus words!!
