My Project

This project will impact 2 classrooms!

Mr. Baldie's Class and Mrs. Phillips' Class!

We’re thrilled to bring a new level of excitement to our 7th-grade ELA classroom! With blacklights, highlighters, and neon paper displays, we’ll make reading and writing activities feel fresh, engaging, and memorable. Imagine students’ projects glowing under blacklights, their work highlighted in vibrant colors that make key ideas stand out. These tools will transform occasional assignments into immersive experiences, creating a unique learning environment that helps students feel more connected to the material.

Our goal is to use these interactive supplies to make reading and writing both fun and meaningful. By using blacklights to showcase student projects and neon paper for colorful, eye-catching displays, we can make activities feel special and spark a new level of interest in language arts. These tools will help students engage with concepts more deeply and add a creative twist to ELA that encourages them to think outside the box.

Your support will help us create a lively and stimulating classroom that makes learning feel like an adventure, inspiring our students to approach reading and writing with confidence and curiosity. Thank you for helping us bring this vision to life and for making a difference in our students’ learning experience!
