My Project

Students in my classroom love to write. This project will fund materials to enhance our daily Writer's Workshop time.

Let's set my first grade students up for writing success!

Students in my room love getting up from their tables and moving around the room during independent writing time. The classroom set of clipboards will ensure each student is able to sit comfortably while also having a hard surface to write on. When students are finished with their writing, the plastic folders will be utilized to keep all writing organized and in a safe location. The high-quality pencil sharpener is also needed to keep our writing utensils usable. Finally, the mailboxes will be utilized daily to help the students keep track of all their work when it is time to go home and be viewed by their grown ups!
