My Project

These sandbox letter/word builders and individualized book baggies will help enhance my kindergarten students learning. The sandbox letter/word builders will help my low-level students with their writing abilities. Letter formation is very big in kindergarten and some of my students need help with just that! The book baggies will allow my students to take home classroom books to build upon their reading skills. These bags will keep the books neat and in a safe place so they can be used throughout the school year.

We need these tools to best support our kiddos in school!
