The Art of Informing: Writing to Share Knowledge

Help me give my students exciting writing and grammar projects through Teachers Pay Teachers. Teachers have created amazing projects to enhance academics in the ELA classroom and I would love for my students to use them.

My Project

My students are fun, eager to learn, and always engaged in the lesson. I love their vulnerability and willingness to try and share new ideas. I am requesting gift cards to Teachers Pay Teachers so I can purchase grammar and writing lessons and activities to enhance the education of my students.

My goal for this project is to promote a deeper understanding of the writing process and prepare them for the state-mandated test while allowing creativity.

Through innovative curriculum, my students will gain the necessary knowledge to feel confident in their writing techniques and will feel prepared to, not only test but to continue writing at a higher skill level.

My students are special because they come from many diverse backgrounds but always treat each other with respect. They come in eager to learn and will try hard at any assignment I throw their way. They are a great group of kids and deserve the best!
