Hand to Mind for Special Education

Help me give my students the phonics tools they need to support their reading skills. I have special education students who have severe attention problems. Hands-on manipulatives keep them engaged. Anything purchased will be greatly appreciated!

My Project

These hands on manipulatives will help my special education students by keeping them engaged in the learning task. A lot of them have severe attention problems. Hands on tasks keep their attention span longer. All of these products will benefit my students with dyslexia. They have trouble following where we are on a page. The finger guides will help them keep track of there they are.

The magnetic alphabet set will greatly help during centers and small groups.

My students need that multi sensory approach to remember their alphabet sounds and help with blending. All of these products will not only help my students this year, but for 100s of my future students.
