My Project

I have heard the remark over the past year that my kindergarten-aged students should not be affected by the impacts of COVID-19, as this is their first year in school. I feel this is incorrect--though my students did not experience distance learning or classroom quarantines last year, they missed out on preschool and other early childhood opportunities. My students are missing many pre-reading and math skills that they otherwise would've learned had they not been raised in a pandemic.

I am constantly seeking new games and activities to keep my students engaged, all the while helping them master the literacy math standards for kindergarten.

These resources will be used while my kindergarteners are engaged in meaningful small group instruction and activities multiple times per week.

I am requesting several letter and phonics games, so my students can practice matching letters and sounds together. I have also selected compatible number and counting versions of the same games, so students will already know the rules and directions, but will be able to practice necessary math skills.

Playing games with their peers will not only help them develop their alphabet knowledge, phonics recognition, and number sense but will also give them much-needed practice in the areas of social skills and turn-taking, which are imperative to their social-emotional learning and well-being.
