My Project

Our 6th grade ELA classroom is a vibrant hub of learning, exploration, and creativity. However, we believe that every student deserves that extra spark of motivation to truly excel in their reading and writing journey.

Our project aims to cultivate a culture of enthusiasm and achievement in literacy by introducing a reward system that recognizes and celebrates students' dedication and progress.

Through this initiative, we plan to acquire a variety of enticing prizes that will serve as incentives for our students to engage actively in their ELA studies.

By donating to our project, you have the opportunity to directly impact the academic journey of our 6th graders, igniting their passion for reading and writing while fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride in their achievements. Your generosity will not only provide tangible rewards but also instill a lifelong love for literacy in our students, empowering them to become confident and proficient communicators in the 21st century.
