My Project

Phonics, Reading, and More! I would love to provide my students with special needs, some new phonics, and reading games, and a new rack to use for my posters and learning charts. I do not have enough wall space to tack up all of my learning posters, so I need a portable space to keep these on!

My students are amazing humans, and they are in 3rd and 4th grade.

They have differing abilities, and we work hard every day learning how to read, write, listen, etc. They certainly deserve new learning phonics materials and book bins to keep our new materials.
