My Project

Have you ever thought about how much you write in a day? Words, numbers, stories... the list goes on and on! The same is true for a classroom.

My students are busy writing all day long, and by this point in the year our materials are running out.

Dry erase markers are used every day and across all content areas. Crayons are used to help make the stories we write more interesting. Having different writing options also motivates some students and keep them engaged. Not only are materials running low at this point in the year, but attention spans can also be low. This is where the timer comes in. This timer will help students to know exactly how long they have to work or how long they have to get on task. The possibilities are endless for these Wonderful Writers! Thank you for your consideration and support with this project and my students!
