My Project

Our scholars need practice with writing! Learning to write can be challenging and our students love practicing letter formation with creative tools and hands on manipulatives to practice with a variety of tools.

Manipulatives make writing more fun!

My students still practice writing with paper and pencil but when they have the opportunity daily to practice letter formation with hands on tools, they have so much fun. Our students love using materials such as dry erase markers, foam letters, page protectors to trace and colorful tools to create more joy in learning.
