My Project

My students need many opportunities to practice their craftmanship with writing. Throughout our day, students are tasked with grow their writing skills.

Fourth and fifth grade is a time to develop these foundational writing skills and solidify them before moving onto middle school.

By donating to our project, you will help to increase my student's overall academic achievement.

The grammar book will allow students to correct different types of writing styles. These skills will transfer to their independent writing skills. Composition notebooks will be used for independent practice for students to use the skills learned in our whole class lesson.

Grades 3-5
