My Project

My students and I do not have access to color prints. We write a lot throughout the year. Students write summaries using expository, opinion, and narrative texts. During the last trimester of school, students start publishing their work and distributing it to the staff, parents and class mates.

We would love to give students a chance to have a very memorable and colorful 2nd-grade writing portfolio.

Some of their writing is already in color, just from coloring pictures, but we’re moving into writing, editing, and publishing on Google Classroom Documents. Please help me make this a great experience for my students.
