When to cast Longstrider
Extra movement is quietly one of the strongest things you can hand a character. +3m every turn means your melee reaches the enemy a turn sooner, your archer keeps repositioning to high ground, and everyone escapes hazards faster.
It is a Ritual with an unusually generous upcast, buffing an extra party member per slot level, so a single higher-level cast can speed up the whole team until Long Rest. Cast it in the morning and enjoy a better positioned party all day.

Throw a shard of ice that deals 1d10 Piercing damage. It explodes and deals 2d6 Cold damage to anyone nearby. It leaves an Ice surface. On a miss, the shard of ice still explodes.
When to cast Ice Knife
Two damage types, a single-target dart plus a small area explosion, and it explodes even on a miss, so it never fully whiffs. For a Level 1 slot that is a lot of coverage: chip one target and splash the cluster around it.
The Ice surface is the bonus. It makes enemies slip and fall Prone, and it feeds the wet-and-cold combos, so following it with more Cold or a shove is easy value. A tidy, reliable opener for any arcane caster.

Level 1 Transmutation spell available to Druids and Rangers. It conjures four berries that each heal 1d4 and sit in your inventory until you rest. Cheap, portable healing that costs no Action to use later.

Conjure four magical berries for yourself or a companion. Creatures who eat a berry regain 1d4 Hit Points. The berries appear in the targeted creature’s inventory and disappear after a Long Rest.
When to cast Goodberry
Cast it after a Long Rest and hand the berries out. They sit in the inventory as free out-of-combat healing that does not cost anyone an Action later, and they last until you rest again, so a slot spent in the morning is four heals banked for the day.
In combat a berry is a Bonus Action to eat, so it is a cheap top-up mid-fight too. It is small healing, but for one Level 1 slot it is remarkably efficient, especially on a Druid who was not going to use that slot for much else.
