I will be using the PVC pipes to make phones for students to read to them selves. They are called whisper phones and are so important for young readers to hear the words they are reading in order to self correct. This becomes a challenge when 23 students are all reading at the same time. I will be using the letters to build words and teach how letters work together to make words. The letters will be used for reading games, inquiry, basic skills and understanding of language. Fundamental letter skills are the biggest indicator for reading success. If I can build that foundation in a fun way I can create readers who are successful and love reading.
