My Project

My students are striving readers in grades Kindergarten to fourth grade. These students need and want engaging and fun ways to learn to become proficient and confident readers. The ultimate goal is to have students identify themselves as readers and foster a love of reading! The use of these tablets will help me immerse my students in explicit, systematic, and multi sensory reading experiences and applications. Reading stimulates the part of the brain that allows children to understand the meaning of language and helps build key language, literacy and social/emotional skills. Please help my students!
