Making connections with letters and sounds

Help me give my students engaging and accessible phonics games helping them better grasp the connection between sounds and letters.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ramseur's classroom raised $505

This project is fully funded

My Project

I work with students who struggle with letters and sounds. The fun and engaging alphabet games and materials will help the students to master and learn the letters. Working to master letters and sounds will have the students engaged and fun.

Writing the sounds you hear will help the students with reading and blending.

This is the key to reading. Practicing all of these skills with letters, writing sounds and blending the letters to form words will engage students to read.

My students in my multi language classroom do not have a lot of games at home to play with. Allowing them to use these games at home and school will encourage to play together, working in small groups and being able to work on social skills.

My classroom utilizes technology for small group and individual learning. Each student having individual headphones is a game changer. Students are able to do their individual learning paths for reading and math which will enable them to grow at their own pace.
