Help me give my students literacy activities to support their developing reading skills!

My Project

My project is to help give my incredibly diverse kindergarten students hands on literacy activities that will actively engage them during centers.

With 6 languages spoken in my classroom, the English alphabet and language is new to many students and we need new activities to support their language acquisition and early reading skills.

These students have been working hard to learn letters, letter sounds, and how to build words using those sounds. The games and letter activities will promote engagement and excitement, while the white boards, doodlers and clipboards will promote independence as we read and write around the classroom. We are so thankful for any donations that support our learning and look forward to having these materials in our classroom. Thank you!
