This week, Cheyenne and Delaney had a great conversation about more than just fixing periods and capitals. They were talking about adding details, adjectives and prepositions to make the writing more interesting for a reader! Great job working together, gir...

The BUGS can!! We have been learning about double letters and why we use combinations like -dge, -tch and -ck. Could you explain these patterns? We all know about using a -ck in words and could even tell the difference, but how many of us realize the rule? What is the difference between "backing" and "baking"? It's the vowel sound, isn't it? We use -ck when we want the vowel to keep saying it's sound, even when...

We've noticed the regular past tense ending of "-ed" can say three different things at the end of a word. Sometimes it says /t/, sometimes...
