My Project

I am so excited about this grant. These materials will be so helpful for my small groups during reading instruction. I work with two small groups of students that need more hands on activities and materials to help with reading.

The letters, boards, and boards will help make the lessons engaging and fun !

By having these materials, I can make sure that each student has access to all of the materials so we can build and read words together in class. As a teacher I want to make our time together fun, engaging, and meaningful each day !
