Please help me give my students a gift card from Teachers Pay Teachers for ready-made fun and engaging Phonemic Awareness and Phonics activities.

Ms. Milburn Morton McMichael Elementary School

Philadelphia, PA Grades PreK-2

My Project

The materials and supplies I am requesting for my students will help teach them phonemic awareness - the foundation of learning to read. I love how their faces light up with each lesson or activity. My group of students' thirst for learning to read makes them unique. The card stock and laminating pouches will create hands-on activities in the photo storage boxes. The binders, sheet protectors, plastic sleeves, & clear plastic binder envelopes will be used to keep the TPT activities and materials organized and ready for instruction.

These materials will help develop my struggling students' phonemic awareness skills so they can take off reading.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
