My Project

Funding this project will ensure my students will have the tools they need to participate in engaging writing activities. Top spiral notebooks will provide students with comfortable writing opportunities. Multi-colored pens will provide students with writing utensils they enjoy and don't need sharpening! Highlighters in multiple colors will help with note-taking and organizational strategies within their writing. These tools will help fuel the learning and productivity right away at the beginning of the school year and will hopefully last well into the winter months! Many of my students are unable to bring their own materials to school so supplying them in the classroom will ensure they continue to work towards academic success!
