We are using the boards everyday. I have been choosing students each day that get to use the boards. It is a special privilege to use them. ( I am only doing this until everyone knows how to use them and how careful they must be with them. ) \r\n\r\nWe recently used them in our phonics lesson with digraphs. I called out the word \"chin\", one of the board holders had 4 sounds for chin. As a class, we tapped out the sounds. They realized that the \"ch\" made one sound so it was a digraph and they needed to find the correct magnetic tile on the board. They corrected to 3 sounds with 4 letters. \r\n\r\nWhen it was unboxing day, I don't know who was more excited me or the kids! They brought in boxes and boxes. The students kept saying what is in there. I told them something special wrapped in love. We unwrapped and put together the first one. I used it as a model in my next lesson. \r\n\r\nThe next steps for this project is to utilize it. I plan on marking each board with a number, so I can keep track of anyone that isn't taking care of their board. FUN FACT: After I received this grant and praised the growth of my students to my Principal. She decided to buy a set for every teacher in grades K-2 with our Title one money. I was SHOCKED! I know that if this grant wouldn't have been funded, my school would not be changing how students show phonemic awareness.
