My Project

In our commitment to enhancing early literacy, we would like to implement hands-on materials specifically designed for kindergarten English language learners. While integrated throughout the kindergarten day, these resources will significantly support vocabulary development, alphabet knowledge, and critical phonemic awareness skills. Our students are remarkable, each bringing diverse backgrounds and experiences that enrich our learning environment.

English language learners deserve language and literacy materials that support their needs and are seamlessly integrated throughout the classroom, allowing them to learn alongside their English-speaking peers with confidence.

We can further support their literacy journey by providing resources designed to allow multiple repetitions of critical skill-building practice. By providing resources that include picture clues, we can support English language development and provide comprehension support that can speed literacy learning.

Ms. Mills will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by Monday, July 14.
