My Project

In my classroom, composition books are a vital tool for students to engage in daily writing exercises, taking notes, and documenting their learning progress. These books help students develop their writing skills and allow me to track their growth throughout the year. However, due to budget constraints, many of my students cannot afford to purchase these books on their own. Pocket sleeves are crucial for organizing student work and materials, making it easier for students to keep track of assignments and for me to manage classroom activities efficiently. Laminating sheets will allow me to create durable learning resources such as reusable worksheets and visual aids, which can be used throughout the year.

The lack of these supplies has created challenges in maintaining an organized and effective learning environment.

By securing this grant, I will be able to provide each student with the necessary composition books, keep their work organized with pocket sleeves, and create long-lasting learning materials with laminated resources. Please consider donating to our project so my students can develop their literacy skills!
