My Students

I work with first grade students. We are in a rural area with limited resources. At our Title I school, 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

I have our future leaders here in my hands, and I must provide them with the foundation.

These students need to be up-to-date on real-world events and information. They need the tools to be able to push themselves higher. They are eager to learn new things, and I am excited to teach them! With all their questions and curiosity, the sky is the limit!

My Project

My students are learning to read. I have students on different levels. Students are learning sight words and blending letters together to make words.

These resources will help provide my students consistent exposure to sight words to help build their reading and sight word knowledge.

By knowing many sight words, students build confidence and fluency because they do not have to sound out the words. They already know them by looking at them. These simple books will help my lower students gain that love for reading while learning sight words!
