I'm An Author!

Help me give my students the opportunity to create their own books using quality supplies!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Anderson's classroom raised $212

This project is fully funded

My Project

Students will use these supplies to create their own books using the language skills we've been working on all school year. The books will be on display and available for others to look at and then sent home with students when the project is completed.

This project will help students take ownership of their writing through words and pictures.

The students completing this project are English language learners at various levels and through this project will grow in their language acquisition. The materials in this project are high in quality and will provide an understanding of how authors and illustrators tell stories, publish books, and express themselves.
