My Project

Help Our Young Readers and Writers Stay Organized and Proud of Their Growth!

We are hoping to provide each student with a book bag and a writing binder.

The book bags will hold their phonics readers and leveled books, making it easy for them to access just-right books during independent reading time. The binders will be used for Writer’s Workshop — giving students a place to store their writing pieces throughout the year. This way, they can look back and see their amazing growth as writers! These simple tools will help foster independence, organization, and a true sense of pride in their reading and writing.
