Help me give my students a multi sensory exploration into letters and letter sounds. Our kindergarten class has begun their reading journey by learning the letter sounds. By hearing, seeing, and touching our letters we will improve reading.

My Project

Our students are very hard workers and even when it is free play they enjoy manipulating learning puzzles. These hands-on learners are beginning to sound out words using the word phones.

Along with their letters, they are able to identify their numbers using number puzzles.

It is important that they identify their numbers out of order and put them into sequence.

Our students are also setting lifelong goals and exploring community helpers. These students are dreaming big for the future! Please help our diverse learners continue in their growth mindset.
