Hi Rachel,
I am moving into a 1/2 classroom for the first time next year and love
the idea of individual spelling lists. Would you be able to send me
anything you have that you think might help me get started? I would
really appreciate it!

I have a student who is displaying similar behaviors in my first grade class. I
