Goal

Our ESE students thrive with hands-on learning. We’re building small-group reading and math centers filled with engaging tools and manipulatives to make learning fun and accessible for every child.

Description

To support their growth, I’m creating reading and math centers designed for small-group learning. These centers will include engaging tools that make abstract concepts concrete and accessible. With your help, we can provide resources that foster independence, confidence, and a love for learning.

Benefits

Improved Engagement: Hands-on tools make learning fun and interactive, keeping students motivated. Stronger Reading Skills: Phonics kits and Elkonin boxes help students build foundational literacy skills like decoding and blending sounds. Better Math Understanding: Manipulatives make abstract math concepts concrete, supporting deeper comprehension. Increased Independence: Small-group centers allow students to work at their own pace, building confidence and self-reliance. Sensory Support: Tools like tracing pads and fidgets help students regulate emotions and stay focused. Inclusive Learning: These resources meet diverse learning needs, ensuring every child has access to success.
