Most of my students struggle with phonics skills and need lots of opportunities to practice what they have learned. They love hands on activities and games. I have a lot of files saved but limited materials to print them off for student use. Phonics workbooks can be so dry and boring for struggling learners. I hear groans when I ask students to get them out. The card stock will be put to use creating flashcards for individual practice, game boards, and fun center activities. Dry erase pockets and sheet protectors ensure that materials can be used over and over without printing them again. Students will use the binders to track their own progress through phonics skills, grammar skills and math skills. Studies show that when students track their own learning, they grow even more! File folders will keep materials organized for later use and make things easy to find. Help me make learning more fun for some wonderful, hard-working kids!
