My Project

My students are sponges; they soak up the material well. They are excited about learning. These items: ABCs and Numbers will be used to help them strengthen their reading and counting abilities. Also, these learning games will help develop their social skills because they will be working with a partner. They will teach one another through play. For example, after whole group instructions my students can reinforce what they learned by practicing with a buddy or independently. During the play students can clarify their understanding of the concept. Also, they can discover new things as they practice. They can sit in the bean bag seats to read independently. The possibilities for learning are endless.
