My Project

Being in a Title I school, the majority of my students come with very little knowledge or no knowledge of alphabet recognition. The alphabet materials requested will support my small group instruction and intervention groups to help with alphabet recognition. The majority of my students are struggling with alphabet recognition. I know these materials will help learning the alphabet more exciting and fun. I'm constantly creating file folder games and singing songs to help expose my students to the letters of the alphabet to jump start the light bulb in their brain.
