My Project

My students are so inquisitive and love to explore! These materials will assist my students in having hands on materials to work on recognizing letters and letter sounds. The literacy tubs will reinforce literacy learning activities with materials that my students can manipulate. The tubs will give my students the uppercase and lowercase letters paired with several items that begin with the letter sound. These materials will allow for hands on exploration when we are working on learning our letter sounds. We will be able to use these materials during small and large group instruction activities. In addition, students will be able to use the materials independently when engaging in literacy practice activities!
