Wonderful Writers

Help me give my students an organized writing station with paper trays and tools they can access during writing without wasting valuable writing time. We also need to replace some headphones that are no longer working.

My Project

The materials and supplies I am requesting for my students will help make finding writing materials and resources more efficient so students can spend more time on what they want to do, their writing. The paper trays will give students the choice of writing paper and access to resources like dictionaries, glossaries, anchor charts, and writing checklists. Students can sharpen pencils faster and with less distraction to other students. They can use tape to add to their writing and staple their papers together into books.

My students can focus on being creative and not on the supplies and resources they will need to be creative in their writing.

I am also requesting headphones with microphones because our current class set is starting to wear down and a few need to be replaced. The headphones I am asking for have lasted longer than any headphones I have had in my classroom. The students love how comfortable they are and prefer the style.
