My Students

Do you remember the excitement you felt as a child when you could write your name and then your very own sentence? Children learn to write the way they learn to talk. Practice! Practice! Practice!

I teach Kindergarten in a rural area of South Carolina located along the Corridor of Shame.

I teach in a Title One school where we serve 93% of the students with free and reduced lunch. Due to drastic budget cuts we are are limited to resources for materials and supplies.

My Project

My students need personal journals for writing, paper, pencils, a Get Ready to Print Practice Book, and Write & Wipe Markers. I am requesting these materials to help my kindergarten students develop a love for writing and to help them learn to express their thoughts and ideas with words. They will be provided with many opportunities to write throughout the school day on paper and in their journals.

Having these materials will allow my students endless opportunities to write in all areas and centers in my classroom.

They will be able to receive a great deal of practice and respond to literature in their journals. Those who encounter trouble with writing will be given extra practice in the print practice books.
