My Project

My students are a part of the New Arrivals Program. They all recently moved to the United States and are developing their English language. As a self-contained classroom we explore all subjects and topics with English language development at the core.

The materials in this project will be used to promote their language acquisition through tactile learning and art.

We often use whiteboards and dry erase markers to practice phonics and other literacy skills. The sentence strips are a great way to post sentence starters in the classroom to promote students' oral language. We often use markers, cutting and gluing to practice language skills in an engaging way.

My students are eager to learn, driven, and we would all be grateful for anything that is donated to our class.
