My Project

My young scholars are amazing and full of wonder as they make academic strides in kindergarten. They've discovered that letters lead to words and words lead to an entire world of possibilities beyond their wildest imagination. Seeing that spark in their eyes gives me all the motivation that I need to continue to push them to newer and better things. The supplies from this project will continue to enhance their learning through more CVC word practice as well as multiple tools to help them with their writing such as dry erase markers and erasable books. I know that all of these supplies will give them extra practice to reach their full potential this year as we make way to 1st grade!
