My Project

My students come to class ready to learn. They get excited about learning new concepts and always give 100%. My students have already mastered their letter sounds.

Sometimes, we need to blend two consonants together and sometimes we use two consonants to represent one sound.

We will use our new materials to learn how to hear the sounds, read them and write them too.

These materials such as the Diagraphs teaching tubs will be great learning tools as we begin to read more complex text. Initially, the activities will be used during small group instruction. Then, the students will be able to access our new blending and digraph materials independently.
