Invisible Words

Help me give my students fun, hands-on ways to practice their sight words and learn reading skills.

My Project

My students need fun hands on ways to practice their reading skills. This project will give my students folder games to practice words and making works. These games give me a way to differentiate their word practice and challenge those who need it.

Imagine practicing your words with an invisible pen!

These pens will give my students a fun way to write their words as a choice during our word work station. I also have smelly pens that will be a hit! In Kindergarten it is important to have fun new ways to engage my students. By giving them choice during the day and new options I am sure excite them and make learning fun.
