My Project

The materials I have requested, are activities and manipulatives I can use in small group instruction and literacy centers. Students in kindergarten love to use hands-on activities. These supplies will give my students the opportunities to build phonemic awareness by making letter/sound connections. These games, blocks, puzzles and other materials will set my students on a path to become lifelong readers and writers.

I have 23 kindergarten students eager to learn.

Each day they come to school, should be exciting. All of these materials requested will help give them exciting and beneficial learning experiences.
