My Project

Most of my students are at school for the first time and they are enthusiastic learners. Due to Covid, I had to switch grades and lost most of the materials that I had for Early Kindergarten. I make centers weekly but I would also like to add some hands-on activities like a hands-on mystery box and magnetic letter builders. My students are 4 and 5-year-olds that are very eager to learn. I would love to have engaging literacy activities for my students. My little learners will be so excited to learn their letters and sounds with these fun materials.
