My Project

When my students come to school, they look to our school as a second home. My wish is to provide them with all the necessities they need in order to learn. Reading is a necessary life skill. I want to provide my students with as many resources as I possibly can in order to build these foundational reading skills.

Research has stated that hands-on learning has a positive and big impact on student learning which is why I want to provide them with this opportunity.

All of the materials will be used to give my students an opportunity to learn through games and various activities. The games will be used through modeling and small group time.
