Some students seem to think there is no way to study for the spelling test. You're wrong. :-)
1. Study words on your personal spelling list on p. 106 of your book where you should be writing words that you misspell on your tests.
2. This week the skill tested is adding the -er suffix to words and knowing what it means. So you need to study the rules for adding suffixes.
Here's an example:
Base Word / Add -er suffix / Meaning of word with suffix
easy / easier / more (easy)
write / writer / one who (writes)
charge / charger / something that (charges)
3. Also, review there, their, they're, there's, and theirs. You often make mistakes with those. Also, review its and it's. That's another one you stumble over.
