My Project

I am looking for support in supplying my students with an alphabet soup sorting game, play dough, Expo markers, and uppercase magnetic letters for my literacy intervention space.

Having items available for my students to keep them engaged is very important to me.

At this age using their hands while also working their minds is vital. They enjoy having a variety to work with so they are not bored using the same materials constantly.

My students will be using mini whiteboards as we start to do more word work and we are in need of Expo markers. The magnetic letters are used on a cookie sheet or our whiteboards to also continue with our word work! I am in short supply of uppercase letters.

Any support you can give to my students is greatly appreciated. They love working one on one and using new materials that they may not have within their classroom. Thank you!
