My Project

My students are wonderful and are a joy to be around. They are eager to participate in our daily learning adventures together. Whether working all together or in small groups they are always showing off their amazing skills.

I'd like to be able to provide them with phonics phones and a phonics tool kit to help enhance our daily reading skill.

Phonics phones are wonderful to use with decodable readers, allowing students to hear their own voice more clearly, helping them identify, isolate, and differentiate sounds within words. The tool kit would allow for hands on learning of phonics skills.
