individualized high-frequency spelling words and the This Week's Words iPad app

Accurate, consistent, and fluent written recording ("mastery") of high-frequency words is an important skill in the development as a writer.

Utilizing formative high-frequency word spelling assessments, individualized high-frequency spelling words for learning are identified for each student.

The First Grade Butterflies independently create a list of 10 (of the identified words for learning) individualized high-frequency spelling words in the This Week's Words iPad app.

This Week's Words supports each Butterflies' learning and development of high-frequency spelling word mastery through interactive and engaging activities that integrate visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles.

The app is utilized as an instructional support in students' learning, review, and assessment of individualized spelling words.
