Grant Writing Tips
http://teachers.net/gazette/JUN09/mccloud/
Teacher Kim McCloud, who’s been successful in winning 11
grants in two years, funding many classroom materials and
projects – even field trips – shares her winning strategies.
Kim McCloud is a first grade teacher in Tumwater,
Washington. She has been successful with grant writing tips
and wishes to share those tips to help other teachers.
Kim says: I have won 11 grants in the past two
years-including 3 field trips (for my entire first grade), a
writing curriculum, math materials and manipulatives,
reading materials (books for my guided reading time as well
as for my Nightly Reading Program in which my kids check out
books to read at home), white boards, erasers, markers, and
storage units for them. You name it, I apply for it! My kids
benefit sooooooooooooooo much from it! I hope others can
benefit from my grant writing tips!
