Every Child Can Read

Help me give my students Learning Letter Tiles and Sound Boxes for hands-on reading & writing tools; Zipper Bags to make math tool kits; and Bins to organize their library by genre. Mahalo!

My Project

Learning how to read is essential - no doubt. I know how to help kids fill the gaps they are missing and to acquire the skills they need to move forward. Every child can master the art of reading when given the tools and lessons. Letter tiles, elkonin boxes, and direct instruction is one component to this. I would love to have a full class set of 24 of these! That would really engage students as a whole class - and I can use them to differentiate in a small group setting too! Another hope I have is to give students the hands-on materials they need to supplement their math thinking. Younger students thrive when given concrete materials. I have the materials, but would like the mesh bags to create kits to manage time and make the most of our lessons. Last, the library... I would love to organize it by genre but don't have the bins to do so. This would help students find what they're looking for quickly and efficiently. I am new to the island and just got hired at Waikoloa! I'd love to set up my classroom with some of these essentials. Thank you so much!!
