Just Tell 'em Large Marge Sent Ya

My students need large post-it pads because they are an item I use everyday in my classroom. These anchor charts are displayed throughout the room so that my students can refer back to them.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I am a literacy teacher who works with general education students, special needs students, and ESL students to improve literacy skills. Introducing my Morning Doves and Afternoon Shadows, 60 rigorous, engaging, diverse, gifted, authentic, ESL and supportive members of our fifth grade community. They love working together and putting their ideas together to create large visual anchor charts to refer back to while working independently. We use large anchor charts daily and are in high need of large Post-Its. I am building life-long readers, lovers of literature, creative thinkers, and effective writers.

My Project

I am requesting large post-it pads because they are an item we use everyday in our classroom. When my class gathers together for a lesson, either I create an anchor chart or the students use small post its to place on the large post its based on the lesson. These large anchor charts are displayed throughout the room so that my students can refer back to them when needed. This is an essential item in my classroom.

The large anchor charts we create help my students to have visual to refer back to of what we are learning/have learned.

It would help tremendously to have a supply of large anchor chart paper in my classroom! I hate running out because I know how important our large charts are to our literacy and math learning.
