My Project

As many know, we don't have the luxury of having colored printers in most schools. If we do, it cost extra for teachers or students to print anything. I wanted to request a colored printer for my room to allow for my students and I a chance to liven up the class! A colored printer will allow for more eye drawing resources to be printed on my end. As well as my students can print their online work so it can be put up around the room! The laminator will also allow for me to keep more resources/examples for my class. This will save not only on printing several unnecessary copies of things like readings, but it will allow for students to be able to write their thoughts on the paper with a dry erase marker, and then just simply erase!

My students love being able to design assignments online (especially through Canva) so I just want them to be allowed to show off their designs by being able to print them!

I also just want to give them more opportunities to show pride in their work, which can be very limiting in the high school setting.
