My Project

In my creative writing class, I am having students do something called the multi-genre project where they will create their own writing project, using different writing methods on one topic of their choosing. This will then be turned into a physical project-whether it is a scrapbook or shoebox they will decorate and submit, giving them a more interactive and engaging class. However, due to being in an extremely poor community with students who can't afford to buy their own supplies. Please help me put creative supplies in their hands. Thank you!
