My Project

Engaging resources are important in early literacy because they capture children's attention and make learning fun! Engaging resources help develop a love for reading and build critical literacy skills.

The Lakeshore flip books, writing center, and other resources will assist in creating hands-on activities and contribute to a positive learning experience within the classroom.

These resources will be used as reinforcement to important concepts that are integrated within our curriculum.

My elementary emotional support students need more access to hands-on resources opposed to worksheets and workbooks. In order to best meet their needs, it is important to provide them resources to help them excel. By making literacy enjoyable, engaging resources will motivate children to participate and develop their reading abilities.
