Help a 1st Year Teacher’s Students Become Published Authors!

My Project

I am a first year teacher to 23, bright, caring, and loving first-graders who are so passionate about writing. I truly want to help them create books that they can be proud of!

My students have been working very hard on their personal narrative writing.

With my students putting so much effort into their writing, I would love to be able to bind their stories so they can have official books that they can be proud to show off! I can’t wait to be able to bind their writing into actual books that they can keep and show off during our literacy night! I also would love to be able to give them the materials that they need to make it through the school year.
