My Project

My students have been working hard to improve their writing skills this year! Most of my students are writing sentences with phonetic spelling and proper structure. We do writing whole-group each day, and I usually give my students a prompt or topic during that writing block.

I want to give my students activities and supplies so they can write independently at our writing center!

A beginning writers box and 3-step sequencing cards will give my students ideas of what they can write about, and will encourage them to write more than one sentence. New pencils and shaped erasers will give my students the tools they need to write, and a rotating organizer will keep our materials neat!
