My Project

I am very excited to get my students writing...enjoying writing! My idea is to use colorful tools like gel pens and different-sized paper to break up the everyday.

I believe the use of sight and sound will light a spark and make my students look forward to writing.

As the students prepare to write, we will use different sounds to calm and focus their thoughts on the lesson's topic. The sound bowl and tuning forks will bring that concentration into focus.

I want to break the students into fluid teams to collaborate with compliments or questions during the writing process.

Thank you for any help you can provide in inspiring a child's love for writing and learning how to focus personal energy.
