My Project

I am excited to request these supplies for my Reading Intervention classroom!

I am hoping to get new reading manipulatives and materials that will improve my students reading and engage them in fun literacy activities.

The items I am requesting are CVC Touch and Read Cards, Digraph & Blends Touch and Read Cards, and Vowel Touch and Read Cards. I am also hoping to get Twist and Turn Letter Knobs for the students so they can practice blending sounds and encoding words.

In addition, I am hoping to get new curtains for my windows to make my classroom more inviting and welcoming. These are all items that will be used and will help my students and I to have a successful school year!
