My Project

Big books are great tools to teach kids how to read and write. With big books, we can learn high frequency words, familiar words and new words. Help us become successful readers using big books. Big books are fun and easy to see. Every time we use a big books students pay attention for a longer time. After reading the big books, we use the big book to in a game called "Find the Word." I, the teacher, give a student a word and he or she matches with the word in the Big Book. Big books will make a big difference in the students Literacy lessons. Please help me enrich kids learning experiences...
