My Project

For this project I am asking for your help to supply my students with mechanical pencils, labels and journals so that they can start the year off writing.

Our goal for this year is to read like writers and write like writers.

We can achieve this goal with the tools provided by this project. My students love to have new journals and mechanical pencils, which are their number one requested items.

My students are behind in reaching the state standards and motivating them by providing them with new writing journals personalized with labels and mechanical pencils is a fun way to involve them in the writing process. Creating a culture of learning is our number one goal
