Future Writers

Help me give my students writing tools to help shape great successful writers!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Carmichael's classroom raised $252

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are special to me and their parents. They are eager to learn new things during classroom learning, but also real-world situations that will affect them in the future.

These students are future writers!

Maybe in the past, they weren't told just how great they are, but today is a brand new day and they are having to deal with unprecedented issues!

My kids come from very supportive families who believe in their children and their school. My kids are hard workers who don't mind using their resources.

My Project

These writing tools will allow my students the ability to see the entire writing process. My students will be able to get prepared for future writing by utilizing these folders daily in the classroom. Because my students don't always have school supplies (even pencils and notebooks), they are still so eager to learn to write. The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door!

The donations to this project will help to improve my students' understanding of and competency in authentic, meaningful writing.

There is already a writing area set up for my students to get started writing and traveling to different places through their stories.
