Help me give my students books to read. Pencils, crayons, and scissors to create projects! Posters so we write or draw ideas from discussion about the books that we read. Incentives to motivate us to continue be great!

My Students
I teach first grade in a small inner-city school. My first graders thrive on learning. However, they have many struggles on having the supplies they need to succeed. The quote we use daily is "nothing is impossible, the word itself says I'm possible.
Curious, enthusiastic, and creative children always put a smile into the impossible!
They are fearless first graders when it comes to applying to their reading, writing, and technology. As their teacher, I want to be able to prepare them to variety of tools to engage their world of the 21st century.
My Project
The materials and supplies on the list that I am requesting for my students already have a"home". In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We need your help to get it through our door! In our class, we meet in the front of the classroom to have gatherings, mini lessons, and share time. The papers, books, markers, crayons, and other supplies will be used by the students. The students may create books, projects, or book reports throughout the day. This will be located in the back of the classroom. The chart paper will be used to create anchor charts that reflect discussion that we have during our mini lessons.
The donations to this project will help to improve my students' understanding of authentic, meaningful writing.
By doing this, we will implement a Writer's Workshop. My students will see themselves as authentic writers or authors and illustrators. We will use the materials in the process of life-long learners of writers. As a teacher, I have research reading and writing helps students to become better literacy learners. Therefore, I need your support to make this a reality! Thank you!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
