My Project

Learning sight words can be the key to reading fluently and building reading comprehension in the early grades. When students can easily recognize sight words, they can focus more on decoding the more difficult words. My scholars are a wonderful group of Kindergarteners that love to learn, play, and work in partnerships.

These Sight Word rings will help my Kindergarten scholars build confidence in their reading and writing skills.

The Sight Word rings would allow my students a fun and engaging way to practice their sight words in school and at home.

My scholars will use the chart markers to practice writing their sight words when working in small groups. My scholars will use the Sharpie markers for multiple sight words activities like: Rainbow Writing, Guess My Word, and Word Searches.

Lastly, my scholars would be able to learn, play, and work in a clean and healthy environment with the Clorox wipes and paper towels.
