My Students

How exciting would it be for my scholars to have rigorous activities to increase their learning abilities? As a teacher at a Title I low-income school, I educate students who receive free or reduced-price lunch.

My kindergarten classroom is a nurturing class, where students feel safe and comfortable.

Kindergarten is a vital year for my students, being their first experience with education. My students come to school daily, curious to learn and explore new things. Often, my scholars are nervous about reading because of fear of saying the wrong thing. With these engaging supplies, my scholars, our future, will build their confidence and literacy skills for reading.

My Project

The materials will help keep the students engaged and encourage them to spell and read words! The students will be able to have their own letters to build words and to read them. The colored vowels and consonants make it easy to sound the words out. The letter tiles will allow students to make words in a fun way. The materials will allow the students to be hands-on and to be more engaged in their learning. The letter tiles will help build my scholars' confidence with building and spelling words. The letter tiles will be tangible for each scholar to manipulate while virtual. This allows opportunities for exploration and scholars will receive hands-on experience. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. The scholars love for words and vocabulary will grow effortlessly.
