My Project

Reading and writing are essential skills that children learn. It's important to provide opportunities for children to practice reading and writing in fun and engaging ways.

Young children have a lot of energy and different learning styles.

Many young learners do better with kinesthetic activities that allow them to move around.

Sight words are common words that schools expect kids to recognize instantly.

Words like"the, it, and" appear so often that beginning readers reach the point where they no longer need to try to sound out these words. They recognize them by sight. I call them "heart words" because we need to know them by heart. Students will be able to practice reading and writing heart words by fishing, jumping, and building!
