Ready to Read in First Grade!

Help me give my students challenging academic games that support vocabulary, comprehension and reading skills!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. K's classroom raised $453

This project is fully funded

My Project

These challenging games will help students practice phonics skills as they learn letter sounds and special vowel and consonant combinations in first grade. As they move throughout the year, I want to challenge them to learn more words and show their learning through writing. It is imperative that my students have the foundation they need in order to advance to second grade. Students at our school deserve a quality education with appropriate learning tools. Please consider helping me gift them the games, markers, and other items they need in order to succeed in first grade!
