My Project

The students that I work with range from first to third grade. They are working on strengthening their reading skills. The items such as the Phonics learning bundle, phonics game, reading, and flash card games that have been requested help to make a connection when students are learning specific types of phonemes or patterns. Students will get the opportunity to build words, practice reading words in passages, and play games to help make what they learning come alive! It is the hope that these activities accelerate the learning of my students so that they are confident in their reading skills and successful learners.
