My Project

With a new binding machine, I will be able to provide my students with journals that will not fall apart. In my class, we have writing journals, fine motor journals, and alphabet journals. This new binding machine will ensure that the books created will not fall apart.

This will ensure student work is collected and maintained in one place.

My students will create class books from family projects and through pictures created in class. These materials will assist in the organization of student memory books, along with ensuring assessments are all in one place.
