Let's Write Books and Become Authors!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Zahnijnyj's classroom raised $315
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students are amazing third graders who love to draw and write their own books. I am a special education teacher in an integrated co-teach class where there are general education students learning alongside special education students.
They use their imaginations, are creative and so amazingly expressive!
Writing is a crucial part of learning. I would like to get a book-binding machine and some binding combs to encourage writing and publishing.
Imagine the joy of a student publishing his or her own book that they can keep forever. They can also write books as gifts for their families.
I am so excited to read the stories that my students come up with. Please help me to encourage writing and have my students become authors!
