Support ELA 10 Success as Readers & Writers!

Help me give my students journals and other ELA materials to support their reading and writing goals this year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Towne's classroom raised $437

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help us stock our ELA 10 classroom for the beginning of the year by putting journals, tools for writing, and other materials to create a space of confidence, joy and success.

Our students are creative and inquisitive and are entering the year ready to challenge each other and themselves.

We want to put high-quality supplies into each of their hands so they can come to class ready to participate and succeed.

This year we will be starting with the NYT Learning Network forums to support students with thinking through how they feel about the upcoming election. Their journals will offer space for prewriting, brainstorming, and even doodling to support their thinking process.
