My Project

Please help me! I am a special education teacher who provides intensive small-group support across many grade levels. The decodable readers will help me during small group instruction in supporting ELL students and students with disabilities develop their reading, sight word recognition and also their comprehension skills.

The dry-erase markers will be used during phonics instruction when activities are differentiated.

The printer will help with classroom visual aids to promote and develop student vocabulary and development in background knowledge. Most students rely on visuals that represent words to enhance meaning.
