I teach in a multi-age classroom of children between the ages of 3-6. Our school is one of the few public Montessori Schools in our city. My students are very active and enjoy different hands-on activities.
"The first duty of an education is to stir up life, but leave it free to develop." These are Dr. Maria Montessori's words and I need your help to stir up my children's learning and entice their thirst for knowledge!
Thank you in advance.

"A child is a discoverer." -Maria Montessori
"The first duty of an education is to stir up life, but leave it free to develop." These are Dr. Maria Montessori's words and I need your help to stir up my children's learning and entice their thirst for knowledge!
My students are constantly exploring their environment.
They are always engaged in conversation between peers and during whole group read alouds. These wonderful children seek to find new ideas to connect their experiences in their daily life. With this project, you will be helping my students gain independence and control of their learning.
The materials I am requesting will provide my students the means to practice letter identification, phonemic awareness and sight word knowledge. These will make sure that my students are building strong literacy foundations, while staying engaged and excited in learning. The goal of this project is for my students to acquire the skills they need to become strong readers!
