Working With Words Fun!

My students need creative ways to spell their daily sight words such as stampers and pocket charts. My students also need read-a-long books with CDs to help them learn to read independently.

My Students

Do you remember how much fun it was learning how to spell words? Each day my students practice spelling words so they can be successful readers and writers. Giving them creative ways to spell words makes it interesting and fun! As early readers it is important for them to read along with a book.

My students are enthusiastic about learning new things.

They have grown so much since the beginning of the school year and they continue to amaze me. We are a small charter school located in a small town. We have a great school and my students are so happy to be there.

My Project

As the year progresses, I am trying to keep them excited and interested in learning to read and write. By giving them creative ways to write their daily sight words they continue to get excited about learning. Anytime I bring a new manipulative in for them to use for spelling their words, they get so excited. It creates a buzz in the room and they can't wait to jump right in and spell. We have just started weekly spelling tests and these materials will help us out so much. Daily my students listen to books on CDs. The classroom set that we have is limited and they have read several of our read-a-long books already. I am a new teacher and I do not have many materials.

By helping supply these materials you can help Kindergarteners learn, grow, and be successful students.

Keeping their minds engaged and excited inspires them to learn. We appreciate your time and hope you can help us.
