My Project

My students love using hands-on items in my classroom and paired with literacy instruction will make the learning even more fun! I meet several times daily with small groups to support students' English language arts needs. Literacy tools like these will reinforce decoding, fluency, and spelling patterns.

We will do sky writing with the finger lights, read our books into the "phones", and the Magna Doodle, magnetic letters & Wiki Sticks will add novelty to spelling and writing words.

We are happy students and becoming better readers and writers every day!
