My Project

My students love learning through centers and work hard everyday as they learn to read. My goal with this project is to further my students literacy growth during our skills centers. The resources will focus on their phonological and phonemic awareness skills and the hands on learning will help get them ready to read. The decodables will support my students who are already reading and promote enrichment through independent reading. My students are special to me as they come from very diverse backgrounds and are my first group of kindergarteners.
