My Project

My kindergarten students have been working hard this school year on their reading and writing foundational skills. My goal for this project is to provide them with additional diverses books, sand trays for writing and headphones to help assist with reading comprehension on their student devices. These materials will help enhance their learning and provide more opportunities for student growth!

The books will be used for read aloud lessons in both reading and math and the headphones will provide a pair for students that are unable to purchase another pair due to their pair breaking during the school year.

The Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will help purchase additional resources to use for both reading and writing. These materials would certainly make students more successful in our classroom every day!
