My Project

Most of this project is catered towards mentor text that students will be using for their upcoming writing units. Students will be expected to complete eight more writing units until the end of the year. That's a lot of writing. The yellow pads will be used to draft their writing.

We love adding color to our bulletin board.

The pastel paper and flair pens will be used for when we update our classroom bulletin board.

Post-it are always great to have around during reading for stopping and jotting. Batteries will be used for the timers that are used for individual students who need that extra help focusing on the task at hand.
