Help me give my students materials they can use for reader's and writer's workshop

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kelly's classroom raised $170

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are very thoughtful, creative, empathetic, and determined. Every day when my students enter our classroom; they bring smiles, new ideas, and fun ways to bring the classroom to life. They are adjusting to being fully together again.

This group of children is so special and hardworking.

I am honored that I get the chance to provide them with an experience of learning new topics, whether it be academically, socially, or emotionally. My students are a large family of friends, a family of friends that are all destined for greatness.

My Project

These materials will help my students be successful during reading and writing workshop. Test Prep is right around the corner and we need pencils and erasers to help with our thinking work! We also can use book baggies, now that we have a variety of books we need a place to store them! My students use baggies to store their just right reading books. However, the baggies are not as sturdy and often break. The book baggies will help my students take care of their materials and have easy access to learning material.
