My students will use these games daily during our Literacy Center time. My students will be able to manipulate and work with letters and sounds each day to help them develop more solid reading and writing skills. My students will start by solidifying their beginning sound awareness. We will then move to ending sound and medial sounds. This will help them with reading and writing. They will be able to sound out words while reading and writing. They will begin to notice patterns in words which will help them to read "unknown" words. The hands-on practice that these games provide will ensure all students are actively engaged in their learning. My students love to work with each other and when the learning environment is fun all students are able to succeed. My students start from lots of different background but by the end of the year they are all readers and writers.
These activities and games will help make the learning engaging for all of my students. Using these different games ensures that all students are able to fully participate in their learning. These games can be differentiated so that all of the students are working on the skills and concepts they need in order to succeed. Some students will continue to work on beginning sounds where other students will be ready to build and write their own words. I want the classroom to be literacy rich for all students.
