My Project

I am a 5th grade ELA teacher. I have around 60 students grade wide. These resources would be highly beneficial to them as we work on reading and writing skills throughout the school year. I could use these as a supplement to our current curriculum and to build upon their knowledge. Included in these resources are the following items.

A complete class set of "How to Write Your Best Story Ever".

Having this would allow me to provide each student with one of these books as we break down narrative writing skills and students write their own stories. This book is a wonder "kid-friendly" resources that approaches narrative writing in an engaging manner.

I also am requesting 3 workbook style books. I plan on using these as daily practice for ELA skills. They will serve as a "bell-ringer" type of activity at the beginning of ELA class every day. I plan to use copies of these workbook sheets to reinforce skills throughout the school year.
