The Write Way to Be

Help me give my students laminating pouches, markers and other writing materials they need to become on their way to young writers.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McClain's classroom raised $388

My Project

Because of donors like you, my class has a brand new and first ever writing table. We need materials to stock the table so that my students have everything they need to start their writing journey. In Pre-K it's all about exposure and I believe the earlier you expose young learners the better. Help me introduce writing to my 3 and 4 year olds by stocking their supply area. The laminating pouches will be good to provide reusable sentence starters and word cards. The scholars will use the markers for their creations and the storage bins will be used to keep everything neat and organized.

I am eager to get the students excited about writing letters to family members, friends, donors, and maybe even Santa!

I can't imagine how far they will take their writing and who they send letters to this year.
