Ms. Petersen's Class

Help me give my students the necessary tools needed to develop language arts skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Petersen's classroom raised $315

My Project

This year I want students to keep a notebook in class that they will use specifically for my class. I know it is not always possible to assume that all students can provide a notebook themselves. My goal is to provide every student with a notebook for English class next year.

My students come from diverse backgrounds, personalities, and talents.

Each one of my students brings something different and special to the classroom. I want to develop a positive relationship with school for my students. Doing that will require a strong learning environment, a positive relationship with learning created by me and the student, and supplies that will be provided to them to support their learning.
