Help us Organize our Writing Center

Help me give my students bright and colorful organization for the classroom writing center.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gold's classroom raised $175

My Project

I am asking for items for our writing center in class. In addition to paper and pencils, we want to give the students fun items to help engage them in the writing process in a fun way. We are asking for some storage to help keep all the writing supplies neat and organized. I would like to add a Rolling Utility Storage Organizer Cart and Aqua Pen Holder Organizer to our classroom. In addition, we want to make it bright and colorful so it is inviting to the young learners. Writing is always hard for some students. They struggle with finding ideas and getting it down on the paper. We think having a cool writing center will be motivation!
