I am a Special Needs Teacher for 3,4,5, and 6 year olds. My students are Developmentaly Delayed. I teach in a PreK-8 school of mostly low income families. Our school was destroyed by a Fire in January of 2004. We are in the process of rebuilding and our resources are limited. I would like some materials to help my students with letter recognition skills. They need this because of their needs for explicit, systematic instruction in phonics and letter recognition to attain the fundamental knowledge and skills necessary for reading development in kindergarten and beyond. If they can succeed in these skills they can function better in regular classrooms. The materials needed are Jumbo Magnetic Foam Letters - upper and lower case letters, Activity tree for Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, and Letter Sound Tubs. This will provide my students of many ways to practice letter recognition and beginning reading skills.
