My Project

Please help small group intervention students build and read their way to success. Using a magnetic journal letter board will keep letters neat, organized and right at their fingertips. .

Every child can succeed in reading if they are given the right tools!

Students can manipulate letter tiles to create words by blending the sounds together. They will need to change letters, add letters, and move letters around to spell new words. Students will be prepared to hear it, say it, build it and read it with a magnetic journal letter board.
