My Project

In our classroom, we focus on building strong foundational skills and to support that, it's important to use a variety of learning materials, especially for our diverse group of learners. What works well for one student may not be as effective for another. This haul from Lakeshore will not only provide my students with hands-on learning opportunities, but it will also give them access to the latest high quality resources Lakeshore Elementary Supply Catalog has to offer.

The products are durable, engaging, and built to last.

I have a set of touch and read CVC word match and we use them daily. I am hoping to expand that set to include digraphs, blends, and two-syllable words. I am also excited for math and writing activities also to change up the theme of our room.

Next school year, our school will begin serving 2nd grade students, and I’m excited to have more advanced teaching materials to support their development. Having previously taught only Kindergarten and 1st grade, these new resources will be a perfect fit as we grow to meet the needs of older learners.
