My Project

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them access to hands on materials to access the Core Knowledge Language Arts curriculum. Hands on materials allow for students to be engaged in learning. CKLA) is a comprehensive early literacy curriculum, grounded in the Science of Reading. The curriculum sequences deep content knowledge-building with research-based foundational skills. Students are provided with instruction and guidance to become strong readers, writers, and thinkers. The Melissa and Doug puppets and puppet stand will allow students to retell stories throughout the domains. The pots, watering can, seed assortment, and Delta Education Planting Starter will allow students hands on exploring through the plant domain. I love watching my students excited to learn and with these materials that will definitely happen!!
