To Read One Must Sound-it-Out!

Help me give my students the tools they need to learn and feel confident!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Asif's classroom raised $226

My Students

My students are kind, thoughtful and full of questions. They absolutely love hands-on activities and enjoy center time. My classroom is filled with children from low-income​ families who many times cannot afford school supplies. Many of my students need different learning options to stay focused.

My students need fun ways to learn how to read.

These resources will allow my students to enjoy guided reading time and have a sense of accomplishment when they see they can sound out words!

My Project

Guided reading time is such an important part of our Kindergarten day! This is a time when I work with a small group of students to help them learn how to sound out words and start reading!

Help make Guided Reading Fun Again!

These learning games will help my students begin to sound out words and feel confident in reading. They will also prepare my students to enter First grade with a better understanding of how to sound read short sentences. Sight words are such an important part of reading everyday sentences and I know these resources will help my students!
