I create a lot of worksheets to reinforce concepts taught daily, both in class and for homework for my students. Printing worksheets that are colorful can be very expensive, so I spend time using crayons to jazz them up. Having a color printer will minimize the time I have to spend making worksheets that will grab their attention. There are times when we run into difficulty, when we are working on graphs or other images such as maps that are highlighted in color to bring across key points. In addition, we use art across domains to help as reinforcement of key concepts and so we go through the colored pencils quite quickly. The tack will keep their work on the wall for others to enjoy and when it is time to send them home, they can staple them altogether. These items will help to enhance the teaching/learning environment. They will be appreciated and used by the students!
