My Project

Hello!

I am hoping to add engaging books, fun writing tools, and alphabet toys to help my students develop their literacy and writing skills.

I plan to use the dry-erase easel during whole-group instruction to introduce and practice new concepts with my students. The alphabet toys will help engage my students with a hands-on approach to learning during small group instruction and free choice learning centers.

These writing materials will help me provide an engaging experience in our writing center and encourage my students’ alphabet knowledge and writing development.
