Parsons ELA

Help me give my students an advantage to learning after COVID. These supplies will allow them to create projects based on their reading and writing activities. COVID learning did not allow for them to be creative in ELA.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parsons's classroom raised $762

This project is fully funded

My Project

Over the past year, my students were not able to do creative projects to demonstrate learning in ELA. When my students complete a short story or a novel they do not take a test, instead they create a project, a one-pager, found poetry, numerous other choices. They love that they are able to be independent and rely on their own learning to demonstrate the standards.

The construction paper, markers, highlighters, and other writing utensils allow my students to not worry about having materials at home - all the work is done in my classroom with support.
