Spelling PracticeThe third graders have individual spelling lists based on their own needs.
They each practice spelling their words in a variety of ways, magnetic letters, outlining words, palms...
On the Palms, spelling partners dictate words to each other and they write the words on the notepad.

IEP Students
Because of the portability of Palms and keyboards, our district has provided Palms for several special needs students. The Palms are synced to the homeroom teacher’s classroom computer.

As reward!
Students earn “reward coupons” for good behavior. The coupon lists several reward choices, such as “no homework,” “treasure chest,” “webkinz time,” “use the teacher’s chair,” and now “EXTRA PALM TIME!”
