My Project

I am requesting items for write my own story project for my classroom. My students are very creative and they are great storytellers. I want to incorporate their creativity and writing by using actual books as finished products.

I think having them write in a book will make them feel like real authors.

I am also requesting a pencil sharpener, crayons, and colored pencils so that they have all the necessary resources to add to their experience of writing and illustrating their book. My students are constantly needing to sharpen their pencils to write. They also need crayons and color pencils to add to their book to make the illustrations more vivid.
