My Project

All students should be given the opportunity to learn and grow in reading and writing. For some, it can be challenging. I would like to provide a variety of ways to teach skills to struggle readers by offering games, puzzles, and other various hands-on activities. Students will be able to practice these skills in a way that works for them and how they learn best. Through these activities, I believe I can give students the boost they need to succeed in reading. Thank you for considering donating to this project!
