My Project
Pre-K students need hands-on learning materials for literacy because they engage multiple senses, which helps make abstract concepts more concrete and memorable. These materials will allow my students to physically interact with letters, sounds, and words, enhancing their understanding of foundational literacy skills like letter recognition, phonemic awareness, and early writing.
Hands-on activities also encourage active participation, keep young learners engaged, and promote critical thinking.
By using tactile tools, such as letter blocks, magnetic letters, or tracing materials, children are better able to grasp language concepts, retain information, and develop a love for reading and writing.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
