My Project

Reading and Writing can be overwhelming and challenging for most when starting out at Kindergarten. This project will give my Kindergarten Readers and Writers a companion to boost their confidence, keep them motivated, and provide social emotional comfort as well! They will go on literacy hunts together in the classroom with their finger flashlights, spend time together working on phonics, and even create amazing stories together during writing! Every young learner could use a friend to help them progress in their own pace that is developmentally appropriate! Some of my students could benefit by bringing their Roaring Literacy Buddy home as well in case they need someone to help them complete homework or just enjoy more time together.
