A variety of literacy and writing materials will give our youngest scholars the tools to develop literacy skills! Having a personal journal gives the students a feeling of accomplishment and pride. It also allows the teacher to keep track of progress! These journals will also go home to share with parents. Alphabet games, activity kits, and a large writing board allow for students to learn in a variety of ways. We've come a long way from the old fashioned way of learning the alphabet. Research shows that giving children hands-on activities will increase their likelihood of developing strong literacy skills!
