My Students

My students are learning the foundational skills that will help them to grow into the leaders of the next generation. Many of them face challenges daily yet they come to school and try their best. It is difficult to try your best when you have so many obstacles to overcome.

I work with kindergartners, so thankfully they are still full of a sense of awe that hasn't started trickling away yet.

I would greatly appreciate your support in getting some resources into the hands of these little learners so that they can continue to be filled with that sense of awe that comes with learning something new.

My Project

The Early Language Folder Game Library and the Reading Skills Folder Game Library will support my students in building the foundation of their reading skills. These games will be used daily to allow my students to learn these foundational skills in a fun way.

A students' grasp of phonological awareness is one of the best predictors of their ability to read.

These file folder games will allow my students to receive the repetition of the foundational skills that they need in order to have a solid grasp on phonological awareness. Please help me to support my students by donating to this project today.
