ELA Opening Doors to Success

Help me give my students the supplies they need to succeed in their education.

My Project

My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work. My students will benefit from these supplies because the tornado impacted our community and left a lot of our students without even pencils and paper to use in school. So this will help my students have a high-quality education.

The products I selected also aid in projects that are done in the classroom such as book reports and vision boards.

The laminator, mechanical pencils, folders, dry erase boards, and other supplies will assist when we are in our rotation stations.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
