Hands-On Learning

My students need sorting charts, Phonemic Awareness Match-ups, Language Lacers, and Bingo games for hands-on centers.

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 Students

After lunch my first graders are not interested in completing workbook pages. It's a (good) challenge for me to find activities for them where they are learning while having some fun in the afternoon.

I've never seen such an energized bunch of kids!

They are eager to learn new skills but they want the hands-on activities. My instruction methods must be highly differentiated to meet the needs of my extremely diverse students. A good percentage of my students do not play games with family or have access to board games.

My Project

With the Phonemic Awareness Match-Ups the children will be able to get hands-on practice with rhyme, beginning sounds and more. The Bingo games target different concepts from letters, sounds, numbers and operations. With the Language Lacers the children will get more hands-on phonics practice and the sorting charts will allow the children to build language skills independently meeting their individual needs.

With your help, the children will get plenty of hands-on practice.

I want these students to love school and become successful. They will also learn to work together and help each other making them successful citizens in our community.
