My Project

This project correlates with the assessment my students use. This Level 2 SANDI kit has specific programs and manipulatives to assist my students with their learning. My students learn through doing, and this is the perfect kit to help them do just that. My students will be fully engaged while taking their learning to the next level. These high interest books and magnetic letters will help my students learn through their learning styles. This kit will also help other adults facilitate learning as they have program cards explaining exactly how to teach the program. The programs range from lower level thinking to higher level thinking that will meet my students where they are at.
