My Students

I recently got funded for a I can write project which I am extremely grateful for . But I thought it could be delivered directly to my students. I was informed it will be delivered when school starts again . That would be for next year students. All I would like to order for my current students who are currently in distance learning with me is writing supplies like markers, paper, and crayons.

My Project

As a pre k teacher writing is essential to lay future pre reading and writing skills. I was funded for a project and I am grateful but I didn’t know it’s for next year students. My current on line students need writing materials to practice their name on our google meets live. It would also help them with daily read aloud drawing responses. Some children draw and have no markers or crayons to color. Please help my current on line students. The majority are in shelters so it’s hard enough for them.
