From this project I learned what writing a grant entails. Before this project I had heard of grants and talked with other teachers about writing grants and what they wrote grants for, but I wasn't aware of what a grant actually looked like. It was interesting to be able to write a grant as well as to see example grants and all of the many formats and layouts that grants can be written in.
While writing our grant, the first struggle was deciding what we were going to write our grant for. Then, while writing, I felt that the hardest part was actually thinking about the product and its role in the classroom with both the students and the teacher. We had to actually think about how it could be used and how the school could monitor its use in the classroom.
After this project I feel that when the day comes that I have to write a grant for my classroom or school, I will be better prepared and have a greater knowledge of what grant writing is and looks like.
