My Project

Paper is a hot commodity in any school. Although, since COVID, most assignments may be online, I still like to incorporate paper into my lessons. I have found that some students perform better with a physical paper in front of them. I use color paper to differentiate type of assignments (Assessment, Warm-up, etc.). When I give projects, I like for the students to have access to high quality card stock, copy paper, or color copy paper. I want their minds to be free to create and demonstrate knowledge with all the tools they could possibly need.

In this project, I have requested bright, colorful paper for projects and for making this classroom binders pop.

I have also requested good quality paper for making certificates to celebrate my students. The paper in this project will be used all year long, and give me the ability to print for my students with ease.
