Language Matters!

Funded Dec 16, 2022

Thank you so much donors for your generous gifts. My students were so excited when presented with the new resources. The Building Language game with realia props have been really useful in building language skills. My English Language Learners (ELLs) frequently request this game. This activity allows me to ask questions that involve properties, letter sound recognition, as well as helping my students understand the world around them. The guided reading books in both fiction and non-fiction have also helped build vocabulary knowledge, beginning high-frequency words and basic phonemic awareness.

When they first saw the materials, they were excited and motivated to practice new skills and concepts. This was my first project funded and I know that these resources will continue to be just as useful to future students.”

With gratitude,
