Wrinkles in Our Brains

Help me give my students books to help them fall in love with reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Churchill's classroom raised $545

My Project

Students learn at various paces and often need multiple resources to help them succeed. I want my students to have a strong literacy foundation by the time they exit my classroom. This year we have strongly focused on phonics instruction and relied on the Science of Reading.

I have seen major improvements in my children and they way they have bloomed to love learning.

However, my students need manipulatives to help them continue working on these skills. I have asked for a variety of resources they will be able to use during small groups and independently. They can use letter tiles and sound boxes to help with unknown words. They will be able to work with partners on various games to strengthen their literacy skills. Also, a Tonie Story Box will be used in a Reading Center to expose them to literature and make them excited about reading.
