My Project
My students are creative, curious, and eager to express themselves through writing. However, we currently lack the basic materials that support consistent, organized, and age-appropriate writing practice. With your help, we can provide each student with the right tools to build strong writing habits and a love for literacy.
This project will fund primary writing journals for my younger or developing writers who benefit from larger lines and visual support.
It will also provide regular writing journals for students ready to write in standard formats, allowing them to grow as confident, independent authors.
Additionally, I’m requesting book bins to organize each student’s materials. These bins will keep journals easily accessible and help maintain a tidy, structured classroom where students can focus on learning instead of searching for supplies.
With these resources, my students will be able to write daily, track their progress, and take pride in their work. Your support will help nurture not just writing skills, but a lifelong love of learning.
