My Project

My students will use these new materials to complete writing assignments. The colored highlighters will be used by my writers to go back into their writing and focus on one area to revise or edit. The use of color helps them remember what they are looking for and also keeps them engaged and excited to do the hard work.

Writing is sometimes hard and these materials help keep my writers organized, engaged, and excited for the writing process.

The erasers will help us fix any mistakes throughout the writing process. The sticky notes will be used to leave any revisions that were added to the sloppy copies of a writing piece.
