My Project

Young children love colorful materials! I would like to add color to our reading lessons. The paper will help with organizing my guided reading groups and to make literacy and writing games.

During guided reading, we use sentence strips to make cut-up sentences in our pocket charts.

The kids love mixing up words and putting sentences back together!

My plan is to make colorful alphabet, phonics, sight word, and rhyming word activities that my students will use during literacy centers. These materials will help my young learners become better readers!
