My Project

My first graders are eager, curious learners who thrive with hands-on activities. Magnetic letter word work sets will give them the tactile, interactive experience they need to build essential reading and spelling skills.

These materials will give my students the repeated, hands-on practice they need to master phonics skills and become confident, proficient readers.

They’ll be able to explore phonics patterns, manipulate sounds, and form words in a fun and engaging way. With your support, I can provide the tools that make literacy learning both effective and exciting for every student.
