My Project

We are still settling in to our new classroom and are looking for some organization for our literacy and writing centers. My students have been really enjoying our writing center lately. They love making cards, pictures, etc. for their friends and family members. We need some help with organizing some of the materials and storing those that are rotated out. The bankers boxes will really help with storing the writing and literacy materials that we are not currently using and will make rotating new materials in a little easier. The binders will be great for making class books that all of our friends can contribute to.

The flair pens will be a fun and colorful new writing tool for our little friends to use at the writing center!

So much of what we have been able to do this year has been made possible by DonorsChoose and we are so grateful!
