My Project

My students are so hard working. In a short period of time, they have learned their letters and letter sounds. The next step is to learn how to blend letters to make words!

Decodable books will help my kindergarteners learn how to read quickly!

My students are working hard to read CVC words and learn how to read but we need more decodable books in the classroom! I would love to place piles of decodable books in a book basket on each of their desks, so they can practice reading during independent reading workshop.
