My Students

I love the joy and light that my students bring to the world. They are beautiful and unique. My students come from many different backgrounds and many of them are English language learners. Our school is a Title I school in which all receive free breakfast and lunch.

Each child is eager to have a fun year learning and sharing in the joys of school.

It warms my heart to see their smiling faces as they celebrate their successes. I am blessed to be a part of building their academic foundation and love for learning.

My Project

As we begin the school year virtually with the hope of returning to traditional, the alphabet games will be used in small virtual groups. The teacher's hands will manipulate the activities by student instruction. When we return, they will be used in the same manner but manipulated by the student.

The donation of these learning activities will build upon letter sound skills which are foundational components to strengthen my students' reading fluency.

These activities allow them to focus on initial and final sounds of words. Letter sound knowledge helps my students as they begin blending letter sounds to form the words in texts.
