My Project

In my experience, middle school students struggle with organizational skills. Sometimes they don't have the necessary guidance, but most of the time they do not have the necessary tools. By getting my students binders, I can teach them the skills on how to stay organized and the benefits that follow.

Next, I am requesting composition books for each one of my students to promote a creative writing environment.

I want to give them a medium in which to express themselves outside of the classroom. My hope is the integration of the composition books will improve not only their creative writing skills but their overall writing ability as well.
