Drawing and Pre-Writing Skills for PreK

Help me give my students the tools they need for creative drawing and pre-writing

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alphonse's classroom raised $345

This project is fully funded

My Project

So many great ideas and stories come from my PreK students! The classroom is a place where PreK students learn to transform their ideas into writing.

Help me give my students the pre-writing tools they need to express their ideas on paper.

Lines and scribbles have stories behind them. I want to help my students develop their drawing and pre-writing skills so that by the end of the year they can write two-sentence stories.

By donating to this project, you help provide my classroom with the basics needed for writing: primary journals, preschool pencils, chart paper, permanent markers, and more.
