My Project

The materials I have chosen for this project are a collection of phonics games and activities to help my students build a solid foundation by reviewing phonics patterns that we have already explored in the classroom. What is important about the activities that are chosen is that they are hands-on. They require them to listen to and manipulate sounds to build words.

A student's knowledge and understanding of the letters and sounds is essential for reading and writing success.

By cementing these phonics skills, students will be able to read more fluently and write greater stories.

The best part is that students will have fun while working on these skills. There will be no boring practice for these kids!
