PEDAGOGY
A name is a source of identity and pride for a young child. Learning to read and write it is a milestone and for many, the gateway to becoming an emergent reader. In fact, The National Reading Panel specifies that by the end of kindergarten, children should be able to write their own first and last names and the first names of some friends, classmates, or family members. The ability to accomplish this task shows evidence of the child’s phonological and alphabetic awareness as well as their fine motor skills– all of which play an important role in becoming a capable reader.

Used to Love

I used this for a few years in my classroom. It was great name practice for my pre-k kids. But it no longer syncs names across other apps. It would take too longer to add names to each of my devices. I’m sad.
