My Project
My students never cease to impress me. They have embraced learning the alphabet letter sounds and have begun to discover how blending those sounds together can form words that they can read or write when they separate those sounds. While some students are at the level to practice their letter manipulation through writing, others require extra support in their sound manipulation skills. I hope to help both ends of the learning spectrum with the materials I have chosen for this project.
Getting a head start to blending and segmenting sounds in Kindergarten leads to greater success and confidence when learning how to read and beginning to write words and sentences in First Grade.
To give my students the enriching education they deserve, we need more phonics activities that students are able to learn easily enough to remember as they do it alone during centers, as well as be engaging enough to keep their attention. The Snap and Build phonics sets are great for both independent and teacher led center activities. Students love the tactile feeling of snapping things together, and they can practice their sound manipulation skills. When they work with me, I can check for accuracy and practice stretching the sounds in words to spell correctly. Recently, two of my Magic Boards in the classroom need to be replaced because they are so well used during our independent center time. Students love to practice their writing on the boards and are in awe with how their writing is magically erased when they are done. Thank you for your time, and I hope you are able to help our little learners!
