My Project

Cursive is a skill that many students want to learn but the curriculum does not offer pages or books to do so. With the books listed on this wishlist, students will have their own cursive book to learn and practice each letter to then move into words and sentences!

Our classroom is big and growing still so we are very limited on supplies.

The supplies I listed are to replenish our dwindling pencils, glue sticks, instructional materials from TPT, and more to make sure my students have all they need to complete assignments and imaginative art activities. Thank you for your generosity and help!
