My Project

My students attend a Title 1 school in Melbourne, FL. We are a diverse community. Most students are unable to come to school with all the necessary school supplies. This will "level the field" and ensure all of my students will have what they need!! As third graders it is imperative that they get exposed to as much writing as possible in order for them to be prepared for the 4th grade. In 4th grade they will be assessed in writing. These supplies will assist me in encouraging them to be creative!
