My Project

Many of my students are struggling readers that don’t enjoy reading because it’s hard for them, so as their teacher, I make it a goal to have all students fall in love with reading by the end of the year. To have students fall in love with reading means it needs to be fun, and I can make it fun with colorful projects on word families, phonics, and writing projects.

Throughout the year, we do a lot of projects that allow my students to be creative while they are learning and growing.

The printer ink allows me to create color center projects for them as I assess their classmates, and it allows me to create take-home games for extra practice.

Many of these essential classroom items have been depleted from the beginning of this school year.
