First Grade is when students develop their foundational skills for phonics and reading. After being at home during the pandemic, the scholars in my classroom came in eager to learn. They are very inquisitive and enjoy hands on learning. During learning literacy centers, our students participate in hands-on activities to explore and practice new literacy concepts. Resources for centers will help our students excel and increase their desire and eagerness to learn new things! These phonics/reading centers will aide our scholars in becoming lovers of reading and life long learners!
