Write, Read, and Repeat: Building Literacy With Flexible Tools

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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 Project

My students are enthusiastic learners who benefit from tools that make reading and writing more interactive and accessible. This project will provide line whiteboard to support handwriting and sentence-building practice, Elkonin boxes to strengthen phonemic awareness, and dry eraser clear to keep our materials in tops shape.

These dry erase tools will be used daily in small groups and independent work to reinforce early literacy skills in a fun and meaningful way.

I'm also requesting stools to create a more dynamic and flexible classroom environment where students can choose where they focus best. By supporting this project, you're helping create a learning environment where every student can sit comfortably, think clearly, and express themselves through writing.
