individualized word study- on the iPad

Using Bear's Primary Spelling Inventory- the stage of spelling development for each First Grade Butterfly is identified.

Knowing their individual stage for development (for example- "short vowels" or "long vowel patterns"), the first graders reference the word work app choices chart to identify and select apps supportive of their stage for learning and development.

     -word work app choices are organized within folders on the iPad "Word Work" page
     -the word work app choices chart lists app choices specific to each stage of spelling development
     -the chart is created with app choice "cards" that include printed and visual text for the app, folder location of the app, and specific "options" and/or "activities" within the app
1st graders select and engage with iPad apps supportive of their
individualized stage of spelling development
