My Project

Kindergarten is the most crucial time to learn the foundations of reading and writing. Having the right materials is a must! This is why it is important to use multi-sensory materials to help make reading and writing stick. The red and green crayons will allow us to study our red words (words that can’t be sound out) and our green (phonics) words and skills. The paper will give us different paper types to practice writing. The mesh canvas material will allow for the kinesthetic learning so that they can feel the bumps as they are creating new letters. The phonics through poetry books will give them great poetry to learn new letters and the sounds they make. Please help us receive these materials to learn to read and write.
