My Project

The items that I have requested will help students learn phonemic awareness along with spelling patterns. These materials will help me create new learning experiences within my classroom.

Students are more willing to learn and stay motivated if there is competition and they are actively engaged.

I plan to use the cups, playdough, sentence strips, and paint palettes in fun new ways to help interest the students in learning. When a child becomes interested they are more likely to invest in their learning. My overall goal is to help students invest in their learning and find joy in it.
