A Colorful Environment!

Help me give my students a splash of color in their everyday environment with a HP Laser Jet Pro printer and extra toner.

My Project

I am changing to the PreK, and I am excited to invite my new inquisitive students from various backgrounds into my classroom. I will be labeling the classroom to create an environment infused with words to help my students with self-directed learning and to teach them that words have meaning. In order to do this I am hoping to add colorful pictures to the labels. I will also use the printer and extra toner for printing out learning resources that will be accessible to all students, helping them to grow academically.

I am eager to make it colorful and stimulating for the students.

I will also use the color printer and extra toner to print out Family Teacher Summary forms for parents when we conference to share their student's strengths and growth. The information will be much easier to review with the color references.

I looked up several printers and their supplies and found this printer to be less expensive at a cost per page. With inkjet printers when the prints get wet the images bleed and I am trying to avoid wasted materials with a laser printer.
