My Project

My students will use the sight word magnets along with the other sight word activities that I am requesting to help them improve in learning and knowing their sight words. Learning sight words will give my students the confidence that they need to begin reading and show them how interesting and fun reading can be.

This sight word project will make a big change by giving my students a chance to learn sight words in a fun and hands-on way.

By using the sight word magnets and activities, my students will be able to learn and achieve reading skills that will continue to help them in the many years to come.
