I did not have time to write my blog post today. I had to be at the school by 8:05 a.m. for the spelling bee. That's definitely OH DARK THIRTY for a retiree, so I've had to scoot around quickly this morning.
So, in honor of the conintued mission for all of us to spell words correctly, I'm leaving you with an exercise, which tests your knowledge of "ie" and "ei" words.
Have fun. Hope you earn 100 percent. It's okay to cheat after your first run-through of this work sheet from my teaching days.
Happy Wednesday.

and “ei” words. Fill in the blanks with the correct letters in
each of the following words.

Special clue, because its misspelling drives me nuts: always think of the famous outdoor store REI when trying to remember how to spell our lake.

Didn't take the test, cuz I'm busy this morning, too. However, I did notice a slight "modification" in the spelling of the word continued in your second paragraph. Darn typos. :)
Yup, darn typos----in a bit of a hurry this morning. The spelling bee was fun.
