My Project

Watching young learners master reading skills is truly the most magical adventure to witness. Our students have been working hard to learn all the letters and sounds. They are now ready to work on mastering two letter blends like 'br', 'tr', and 'fl'. Using the letter and sound tubs was instrumental in helping our young learners master the individual sounds of the alphabet.

Having the tubs that teach two letter blends will be a magical way to watch these students blossom into even more confident readers and writers!

I truly can't wait to watch them unlock even more reading skills. Thank you for considering partnering with us to give our learners all the opportunities possible to succeed! We couldn't do what we do without you!
