End of Year Writing Portfolio

Help me give my students a year-end gift of their second grade binder writing portfolio that they can decorate the front cover with paint sticks.

This project expired on May 26, 2024.

My Project

We work on writing all year long in 2nd grade. I would like to give them a writing portfolio as a gift at the end of the year.

This will show their growth through the year in an organized way.

I believe this keepsake will be special for the student and also their families to look back at for years to come. The student will be able to have their portfolio personalized with their picture on the front. The paint sticks and markers will help them create a beautiful cover for it.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
