Exploring Reading Through a Multisensory Lens

Help me give my students a multi-sensory approach to reading with resources like the Elkonin Box Magnetic Answer Board and Alphabet Sensory Bubble Poppers.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Findley's classroom raised $582

This project is fully funded

My Project

It has been backed by research that using a multi-sensory approach to reading allows students to use multiple senses, which enhances their learning experience. This is especially important for low performing students.

With the requested items, I will be able to engage my students in hands-on and highly engaging lessons during whole group, small group, and independent practice.

This will allow them the opportunity to understand and remember letter-sound relationships and create a literacy-rich environment.

It is my goal to close the learning gap(s) and provide students an opportunity to perform at or above grade-level by the end of the school year.
