My Project

Do you know that colors can affect human beings in various way as creativity, productivity learning and emotions? Children learn from a young age to associate colors with particular objects. For instance, they often associate red with apples, yellow with sun, blue with sky, etc. Exposing my students to different shades of colors can help them make important connections and expand their vocabulary, because colors help to assess, estimate and define an object.

"Color possess a language without words" -Billy Dugger.

I would like to provide my students with color visualizations for our literacy lessons. For my small groups, I will use the printer to have color visualizations to help with letter sounds and letter identification. I will print letter tiles for myself and students to explore, build, segment, sound out, and spell. The color photo printer will be used to print pictures of students to display inside and outside of the classroom, to show off their hard work during our literacy lessons.

Thank you for helping me instill the love of learning into the PreK 4 students.
