Fun With Phonics!

Help me give my students dry erase boards, markers, and magnetic letters to work on our phonics skills.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

All of my students enjoy actively learning how words work. With these materials we will be able to make new words and break words apart to learn about how words work. Students will practice writing new words with the dry erase boards and then use the markers to write the words in their stories.

My students love manipulating the magnetic letters to make new words.

They will enjoy seeing the model of words on the new table top easel and then appreciate the opportunity to make their own words on their magnetic boards.

By donating to my project you will be giving students access to more materials to make their learning more engaging and hands on.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
