Letter/Sound Sorts in Reading Intervention
Funded Dec 3, 2024Thank you for supporting our reading intervention classroom. By purchasing the Lakeshore Learning Sound Tubs for our students, you are supporting numerous students in increasing their phonemic awareness proficiency which leads to stronger reading skills.
With kindergarten students, I use the sorting tubs for first sound distinction and matching. In addition, we use them in our phonemic awareness and phonics routine. My student's abilities have increased and they have had fun practicing, too.
I also use these tubs with first and second graders for things like generating rhyming words, segmenting, and matching, particularly with medial vowel sounds.
This hands-on approach has been invaluable for students in need of additional support.
Thank you again for supporting our students. This donation is supporting and will continue to support students learning to read.”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and one other donor.Struggling Readers Want to Read!
Funded Dec 16, 2021Thank you for purchasing so many books for our classroom. I teach readers ranging from "new readers" to students working on skills near their grade level. I typically teach 1 – 5 students at a time. We work on foundational reading skills like phonemic awareness & phonics as well as reading comprehension & fluency.
I have been working to build a library that meets the needs of my intermediate students who are not yet ready for some of the texts their peers read and are no longer interested in many of the books that are at their academic level.
Since your donation arrived, books have been flying off the shelves! Some of my students who typically do anything and everything to avoid reading in class have been some of the most interested, too. It has been exciting to see them finding reasons to read.
Thank you again for your generous donation to our classroom.”

Ms. Eggert
