We Love Writing!

Help me give my students an exciting new journal to get their creative minds working!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kenn's classroom raised $178

My Project

Every morning my students come in and do creative writing while they eat their breakfast. It's everyone's favorite time of the day. They have to write a sentence about a silly photo on the board. We usually do this on loose-leaf paper but this doesn't let the kids see their progress over time.

There's nothing better than seeing how proud they are when they look back at their writing from day one and see how much they've learned.

With your donation, my students can learn to love writing and feel more confident with individual writing journals.
