Help me give my students the scholastic sentence building tiles super set so they have the chance to practice using their new learned words by forming sentences with them.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
In my first year of teaching I was asked, "why do you want to be a teacher" and my response was automatic, "impact" I said. I want to be the teacher that I never had and really leave an impact on the students lives that I will encounter each year.
Children learn in so many ways and I feel students should be given the opportunity to use appropriate materials to help them.
Without the proper resources, the child may not know how to express what they know. The students that I work with learned English as a second language and require scaffolded supports throughout their school day. They are full of life, and are enthusiastic about coming to school each day to learn. I am excited to see the places they will go!
With that, I have found out quickly that in order for these students to reach these amazing heights, they need the resources to be able to do so. I am very thankful to have come across Donors Choose to give the students on my caseload for Special Education a chance grow and expand their knowledge with the best resources possible. Thank you!
My Project
Learning can be fun and engaging for students when they have things to touch, move, see, and play with. In the small groups that I pull, the students are working on decoding/encoding CVC words, answering -wh questions, sequencing, and adding and subtracting within 100. The materials I have chosen will support the students as they learn new content.
The students will be able to use the self-correcting letter puzzles, and puzzle boards during center work, and another group can use the sentence building tiles as well as the CVC spelling board games.
The resources can be used for educational games on Fun Fridays with the students allowing them to further practice their foundational skills.
Knowledge of letters and the letter sound correspondence is a major part of being able to read print and write. The students that I work with would have a chance to form words and build sentences in centers in English and practice using their new vocabulary.
