My Project
Back-to-school season is the perfect time to set students up for success, and this project will provide the essential supplies we need to start the year strong. I’m requesting composition notebooks, glue sticks, pencils, and electric pencil sharpeners to support interactive notebooks and daily writing in my 8th grade English Language Arts classroom.
Each student will use a composition notebook to build a year-long interactive journal, which we’ll use for notes, graphic organizers, writing samples, and grammar practice.
Glue sticks will help students organize content in creative, hands-on ways that deepen learning and support all types of learners. With high-quality pencils and dependable sharpeners, we’ll stay focused and ready to write every day. These basic tools may seem small, but they play a major role in keeping our classroom running smoothly and our minds engaged. Thank you for helping us start strong!
