Help me give my students a place to organize their small group and independent work.

My Project

My students are in fourth grade and love to write. They’re always ready to explore all the different writing genres. I have many new books for our library corner to generate writing ideas. I’m requesting several different file folders to help the students keep their work organized. In addition small group students will have folders with lines on them so I can write notes about their progress.

The students will feel accomplished, organized and proud of their work and their progress.

When students are organized, they have an easier time focusing on their schoolwork and completing assignments in a timely manner.
