Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students love to learn new letters and sounds by using hands-on manipulatives. These letter tubs will be an absolute game changer for our students! My kindergarten students will be so excited to learn new letters with these alphabet sound tubs. Each tub has hands on objects that start with the corresponding letter sound. Students can take turns learning the letter sound and matching the objects!

These tubs can be used in teacher led small group, students led centers, and whole group during our phonics lesson.

I can't wait to use these letter tubs daily and share the joy of phonics with my young learners.
