Students use them to practice phonics, build vocabulary, strengthen comprehension, and review skills targeted to their individual needs.

Students practice hearing and manipulating sounds in words, blending sounds together, breaking words apart, identifying beginning and ending sounds, and strengthening their phonemic awareness. These skills are essential because students need to understand and hear the sounds in words before they can confidently connect those sounds to letters and read words independently.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading starts with these foundational skills and grows into reading real words, sentences, and grade-level texts. The Heggerty lessons give my students daily opportunities to practice through repetition, movement, and oral activities while keeping them actively involved. Having these resources funded means I can provide consistent phonics instruction and give my students more opportunities to practice the skills they need to become confident, independent readers.\r\n\r\nI am especially excited to see students who have struggled with identifying sounds or blending words begin to participate with more confidence. Watching a child go from struggling to break apart a word to successfully blending the sounds together is such an exciting moment. Thank you so much for funding these resources and investing in my students' learning.

We have always had a lunch that was earlier in the day, but this year we have a five hour gap between breakfast and lunch. Waiting that long for food is really difficult, especially for five, six, and seven year old's. Also, it makes learning nearly impossible when you're distracted by your own hunger. I was constantly being asked, \"What time is lunch?\" rather than receiving responses to our reading lesson.\r\nThis donation is a an incredibly big deal for little first graders. They lit up like it was Christmas when we opened the boxes together as a class. That day we were able to have a nice snack break in between related arts and our reading lesson. For the first time, I did not get a single question about lunch time! \r\nSo, from the bottom of this teacher's heart, thank you for your generous donation and allowing me to provide my first graders with a snack. I work for a Title 1 school, and a lot of our families genuinely cannot provide snacks for their children, let alone a snack for our entire classroom.

Instead of kids standing around waiting for a turn, I can get so many more of them playing and practicing at the same time.\r\n\r\nWe've been working on the basics like how to hold the paddle, control the ball, serve, and rally with a partner. I love watching the kids who have never played before realize that they really can do it! The smaller paddles have been especially great for my younger students and have made it easier for them to be successful. There have been lots of missed balls, lots of laughs, and lots of celebrating when they finally get a good rally going!\r\n\r\nWe're going to keep building on those skills and eventually put everything together to actually play games.
