My Project

In kindergarten, my students are learning foundational literacy skills . This essential toolkit will help them learn crucial early literacy skills in an engaging and hands-on way. These materials will be used daily by the classroom teacher with a small group of students. We will use these materials to learn and practice phonics skills in an explicit and systematic routine.

Students love using hands-on manipulatives to help them learn!

Research shows that teaching foundational phonics in an explicit and systematic manner significantly improves reading comprehension! Help us become strong readers!
