My Project

With these items, I will be able to provide my students with their own supplies to to use throughout the school year. Notebooks, crayons, markers, and pencil grips will allow my students to enhance their fine motor skills and creativity. My goal for this project is to allow each student to have the essential materials needed at school, but also being able to take the materials home to extend practice and creativity. My students enjoy creating things and sharing with each other their work. This will allow students to continue building a community with each other and engaging in fun conversations with each other.

With our journals, we intend to use them daily as journals to show students what they have learned throughout the school year, and their progress in development over time.

The crayons and markers are essential everyday items that will help students do this. We also want to use the pencil grips to show students the proper three point grip when writing.
