Writing, Writing, Writing

Help me give my students the materials that they need to become successful writers this school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Douglas's classroom raised $338

This project is fully funded

My Project

I will be using these materials to support over 300 students from 3rd to 5th grade with writing tasks! Pencils, notebook paper, and pens will give students what is needed to get writing assignments completed. Color paper will help students to publish their writing in a beautiful way. Other office supplies such as staplers and hole punchers will help to keep student writing organized.

Our students have to do many writing assignments throughout the quarter.

We are working to help students meet and exceed the writing standards and we need basic materials to make our writing time successful.
