All of my students are hands-on learners. Items like CVC word building activity cards and sentence builders will help my students to see ideas come alive in a way that they cannot without the extra help. The spelling puzzle will help my students view words with pictures, as well as work on sounding out words that they are learning to spell. I like to make learning fun for my students, especially since they are struggling learners. By donating to my project, you will help increase my students interest and love of learning. This is something that I strive to do on a daily basis. All students can learn. It may not be on the same day or in the same way, but they all can learn. It is my goal as their Special Education teacher to ensure that maximum learning and interest occurs.
