It's no surprise that teachers create most of the materials used in the classroom. In my classroom, teacher made activities account for 98% of student used materials, in workstations for both Reading and Math. Due to budget cuts, my classroom is in need of ink cartridges to keep our printer (a separate project) going strong. The ink cartridges will allow me to print classroom creations in black and color for my students. On my campus printing in color is not easily accessible. It would great to print real life pictures for my students! The thought of teaching an unknown vocabulary word and actually being able to have a realistic picture in COLOR brings me so much excitement. We could digitally create charts together on the SMART Board and print them out (in COLOR), to post around the classroom! Any help with this project is greatly appreciated!
