My Project
This spring, our 1st graders are going to learn how to write opinion writing. I am going to use the surfing portable lap desk for students to use during writing workshop. A portable lap desk can provide flexible sitting for younger writers. We are also going to grow plants in our classroom. Students are going to observe their seeds growing and learn the plant life cycle.
My school is a Title I school.
Most students are coming from low-income families. The materials such as party favors can motivate the students.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
