My Project

Games help make learning fun. All of my students are struggling readers. They have a desire to learn but have missed many key elements that make learning to read more difficult. For some of my students, English is a second language and for others, they may have missed key foundational skills that would provide help them to succeed at readers.

These educational games will benefit all of my students and make learning a fun adventure.

That will provide a way for students to master concepts in a fun safe environment.
