My Project

My students want to read. For some, this journey has been halted because they have not been equipped with the tools to unlock the code of reading. I have the knowledge to teach them the tools, now I just need some actual tools to accelerate their road to success!

Studies have shown that involving all senses in the development of reading solidifies new learning in the reading brain.

The materials I've selected reinforce new learning with auditory, visual, and physical practice. My goal is to engage readers the best I can, so they go from emerging to independent readers in no time!
