Spelling Test

In my absence, I have posted this week's spelling test for you to take. I'll leave to the substitute's discretion, but you can either take the test as a class over the loud speakers, or you can take it individually using your own headphones from your laptops. The decision will be determine by an Active Expression vote. Whatever you decide here it is...
