My Project

These materials will give my students the ability to write, create, and construct new things every day. Students work hard to learn how to write and learn how to grip materials the correct way. Giving them access to crayons, markers, and notebooks will make this process more engaging for the children as they watch their words and illustrations come to life! This project, is all about allowing the students to express themselves by giving them the right materials This project will help me create an environment that promotes independent expression!
