Construction Zone: Building Readers

Help me give my students materials that will allow them to grow into confident readers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dubois's classroom raised $251

My Project

My students need multiple differentiated learning experiences based on their needs. In my classroom, I work with students who all need reading instruction, but do not all need the same instruction. Help me provide my students with materials such as magnetic trays and letters to practice everything from letter/sound identification to building words that they are reading.

Manipulating letter sounds is a skill that all readers need.

When kids can change "cap" to "cat" or "cat" to "cut" they are working on segmenting and blending, which strengthens their phonological and reading skills. Donating to my project will help me offer activities that promote these skills to my struggling readers. Please help me make a difference!
