My Project

This project is a collection of materials to support students engage in creative writing this year in Senior English. An assortment of journals to pick from as well as some fantastic pens are a great place to start. I am also requesting materials to create a self-help writing center that will have laminated mini lessons on an assortment of topics to empower students to learn at their own pace while working to master the skills of writing.

I hope to help my students stay more organized by modeling how I organize my time by supporting them with organizing theirs!

In all, this is an important project to support my kids to engage in the content and enjoy their senior year with some special touches.
