The majority of my second graders are English Language learners and are still working on their decoding and reading accuracy. They need to be able to manipulate letters and sounds physically in order to become more proficient with decoding and spelling.
Learning to read is a challenge for any child, and for a language learner it can be especially difficult. The ability to read is not only a skill that needs to be mastered early for school success, it is a predictor of future success as well. I want my students to jump over the hurdle of decoding so that they can access the incredible world of literacy that is at their fingertips. Magnetic whiteboards with letters and digraphs are just what my second graders need to push their reading to the next level.
