My Project

My energetic and curious first graders are at a crucial stage in their reading journey. They are eager to learn but need the right tools to help them grow into confident, fluent readers. This project will provide essential phonics resources, engaging decodable books, and hands-on literacy activities that support early reading skills such as blending, segmenting, and sight word recognition. These materials will not only make learning fun but will also meet a variety of learning needs in my classroom. With your support, we can create a strong foundation for a lifetime love of reading!
