My Project

All of these materials would add so much fun to our literacy center time. The students have center time each day. This is a time students are independently choosing what they want to learn and play with. When literacy is made fun students don't even feel like they're learning!

Students in kindergarten learn so much through playing games during centers.During center time they are able to choose their own activity and interact with other students in a fun way where they are still learning.

These games will help improve letter knowledge, phonemic awareness, rhyming skills and will also support a good classroom community.
