Spelling Test

As part of first grade, Gamble needs to do spelling tests.  He has spelling words (super easy), and high-frequency words (intermediate to challenging).  

Every week he has a spelling test, and we study pretty much every night for it.  Most of the time, the only real challenge is to get him to try to write.  He can spell most words out loud, and can sight-read almost anything.  

To give you an idea of how easy the spelling words are, one recent one was the word "we."  

Of course, Gamble got it wrong the first time we asked him.  He said, "Oh, that's an easy one, Daddie.  W-i-i!"

He got it right on the test, though.
