My Project

These supplies will help build early reading and creative writiing skills. Students will strengthen their reading of decoable books/patterns as well as become beginning writers.

They will be able to share their own stories with friends and family.

Students will work to write and share stories about things they learn, special things happening in their life, as well as their opinion about different topics. Students will learn to put to use all basic writing conventions and the use of important grammar skills and concepts. Supporting my classroom goal will plant the seeds for many new first grade authors to grow.
