My Project

I am requesting a Just Words Teacher's Kit. Just Words is a highly explicit, multisensory program for students who have mild to moderate gaps in their decoding and spelling proficiency but do not require intensive intervention. And it's fun!

The Just Words kit includes an instructor manual, sound cards, word cards, high-frequency word cards, suffix and prefix syllable frames, a student challenge phrase kit, a digital timer, a reference chart, magnetic strips, and a Just Words student kit.

The amazing materials in this kit will help me increase the language skills of newcomers and students in the education process who need a boost in their word attack and spelling skills.
