My Project

At our school, we help our students master common "sight" words by using an incentive program we call "Bubble Gum Words!" Students are given 10 sight words at a time to learn and master. Once mastered, the students get a dot sticker to place on our classroom bubble gum machine and a real piece of gum. Once a student has mastered all of the kindergarten sight words, they will receive a small gumball machine to take home!

We are helping sight words stick with bubble gum!

Thank you for taking the time to consider our kindergarten project.
