Fluently Working Our Way Through Words

Help me give my students flash cards, books, and chargers for Amazon tablets.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Vasha's classroom raised $195

This project is fully funded

My Project

Books are a great way to experience the world with real life characters. My students imaginations are in overdrive when they are reading a good book with characters that are familiar to them.

Diverse representation in books are a necessity for our young students, because they need to see others that reminds them that they are valuable and appreciate them for just being themselves.

These fluency flash cards will be for students to utilize in the summer on their own. The fluency flash cards will help the students to think abstractly and critically with fluency skills. This would help them in the classroom to easily complete their work.

Plus, the chargers will allow them to use tablets in the classroom to practice fluency as well.
