Because of no school on Monday, the students took their pretest today. Since there wasn't a chunk of time to get all 30 test scored, they do not have their spelling test notebook. It will be sent home tomorrow. The list is as follows:

Words with the long vowel a sound can be written as: a, ai or ay

1. aim
2. holiday
3. paper
4. station
5. able
6. crayon
7. flavor
8. lazy
9. brain
10. anyway
11. remain
12. favor
13. rail
14. taste
15. trailer
16. lady
17. nation
18. relay
