The students in my classes are bright, energetic, creative, kind, and so much more! They love learning about the world around them and sharing what they learn with others. My students work very hard to overcome their learning disabilities. One struggle I continually face is finding materials that are both intriguing and purposeful for my students to read while being on an appropriate level. Many of the stories my students are able to read are far below their grade level and don't always provide content that they find engaging. With these new supplies, I can create reading materials specific to my students' interests and using words, word patterns, and vocabulary my students know and understand. With a color printer, I will have the ability to highlight and color code words and patterns to help my students easily identify tricky and difficult words. I will also be able to add eye-catching pictures and illustrations which helps to improve the focus of students who have disabilities related to attention. Another aspect of reading intervention is repetitive practice. All this repetition can easily become boring and monotonous! We love to create games and activities that spice up our reading practice and get the whole class engaged in their word study. These materials will help to create colorful games, activities, and pictures that my students can use to spark their imagination and get their brains tuned in during reading practice!
