Reading Is The Key To Success!

Help me give my students resources to help them stay on track with their sight words and reading while having fun at the same time. My students love to play games.

My Students

Kindergarten students come in and are ready to learn. My students are ready to touch anything and everything that they can see. I love having a lot of different resources available to help cover all learning styles because my students are all very different.

Kindergarten students also need to be able to stay busy, and you have to switch quickly so that problems do not occur.

Having items handy for them to work with, is what I have found to work the best. The problem is, that with a growing class, this gets difficult when you only have one resource to share. I would love to continue to grow my resources to ensure that all students have the ability to use different materials to help them learn.

My Project

Reading is so important to learning and I am teaching it in the beginning. So, please help me obtain these materials. Learning their sight words in a fun way will help them read more fluently. Using the fishing rods to fish for sight words will be one of those fun ways. Using the file folder games will be a great way to help students stay busy and on track when they finish work early. I am asking for these materials to ensure that I can help every student read and feel comfortable and confident in school.
