Glue and Notes to Make It Stick

Help me give my students the opportunity to create a meaningful interactive notebook to take the place of a textbook.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Berlin's classroom raised $158

This project is fully funded

My Project

Many students at our school are not able to afford the supplies needed for all of their daily classes. These supplies will allow for those students to create meaningful notebooks of their own.

Interactive notebooks allow students to shine through their creativity, allowing their notes to not only record information, but to do so in a way memorable for them.

Students will share their ideas with the class, glue in charts and diagrams, and take down any other notes specific to the lessons of the unit. Our team this year is made up of several English Language Learners, and we are doing more spiraling and gluing than in previous years.

Please help me help my students be prepared.
