Help us Learn to Read!

My students need a set of Phonemic Awareness Activity Kits.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gary's classroom raised $122

This project is fully funded

Help us learn to read! I teach kindergarten in a low income school. Our students come from families that are economically challenged. We are in need of activities that will enrich the students learning.

My students need extra help when learning to read. They come from very low income families. Our families have limited income and resources in which to help their children.

The phonemic awareness kits will enable my students to practice their rhyming words as well as the sounds in words. These kits will give my students another way to practice their reading skills.

Your help will ensure that my students will be successful in learning to read. Each student will enjoy working with these activities.
