My Project
Real-life objects and materials, or “realia,” is incredibly valuable for dual language learners because it bridges the gap between abstract concepts and tangible understanding. It is essential because it supports vocabulary development. The printer will allow us to make items in color so my students may learn new words.
Seeing in color activates more senses, which reinforces memory and language retention.
It helps with remembering and understanding. The color prints will engage all learners.
The magnetic building sticks will make their learning interactive because they will be able to touch the created 3D objects. Experiencing real objects connects language to real-world situations, which enhances comprehension and communication skills. Our dual language program bridges cultural understanding through an immersive way to make language learning more dynamic and relatable. Thank you in advance for your generosity to this project and for making learning a fun experience for all.
