My Project

My students are eager to learn! My students love using hands on materials. Play-doh makes forming letters/words fun. The TPT card will help keep writing materials fun and interesting with new materials and themes for writing. The dysgraphia book will help with student that have some difficulty with writing,it will give a variety of activities that they can participate in and given them strategies that will help in writing tasks. The magnetic abc board helps keep the students engaged in learning how to form the letters. All the materials help keep learning fun and keeps the students engaged in learning.
