Empowering Our Young Readers!

Help me give my students materials to help them develop their literacy skills. My Multilingual learners need lots of opportunities to work on building their literacy skills and reading decodable books.

My Project

I am completing Lexia training which is strengthening my ability to enhance my literacy instruction for my kindergarten and first grade students. These books will help my students build a solid literacy foundation which will help them throughout their education in elementary school and beyond. These materials will help with phonological awareness, decoding, sight recognition as well as help students build background knowledge, vocabulary, and literacy knowledge. My students have so much to offer and these materials will strengthen their literacy skills, so that they will be able to share their knowledge more effectively.
