FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Zehr's classroom raised $569

My Students

As my Kindergarten students look around their classroom, they are excited to discover that there are letters and words everywhere! They need a chance to creatively express their ideas through writing.

My kindergarten students are very eager to learn and are so excited to attend school.

Every day is new and exciting for them. Our school consists of Kindergarten and 1st grade classrooms. Unfortunately because of budget cuts and hard economic times, our school district is not able to provide classroom materials.

My Project

By having a writing center in our classroom, my students will be able to grow as young writers. Young children love to write and illustrate and this writing center will give them a place to let their imaginations take flight! They will have a special designated place to use a variety of writing materials to create wonderful works of writing!

By donating towards our project you will truly be helping my students develop a lifetime love for reading and writing.

They will have a comfortable, inviting place to sit and express their own unique and wonderful work! What a positive impact you could make in many children's education!
