Help Struggling Writers with Word Building and Writing Skills

Help me give my students materials that they need to help them with their word building and writing skills. Magnetic letters are used for word building, and the markers are used for recording the words in writing notebooks.

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 Project

I am a reading interventionist in a Title I school. 94% of our students live at, or below, the poverty line. The students that I serve are reading 1-3 years below their grade level. I deliver daily small group instruction where I teach reading, writing, and phonics skills.

These materials will help me deliver quality word building and writing instruction.

Students will use the magnetic letters for word building and will use the markers for recording their words on paper. Beautiful, new materials help make learning fun for students. Students enjoy being able to pick out a colorful marker that they can use to record their work.
