Bringing Color to Learning: A Classroom Color Printer

Help me give my students a color printer for more engaging hands-on activities!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gutierrez's classroom raised $218

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are enthusiastic, creative, and eager to learn. They thrive on hands-on, engaging lessons and visuals that bring learning to life. Many come from low-income households, and our school does its best to provide them with enriching educational opportunities despite limited resources.

My Project:

This project will help fund a high-quality color printer and ink for our classroom. Having access to a color printer will allow me to create vibrant, engaging learning materials such as anchor charts, visuals for SEL lessons, behavior supports, graphic organizers, and student-centered projects.

Whether it's printing visuals to help students understand emotions in a social-emotional lesson or creating certificates and rewards to celebrate positive behavior and academic progress, a color printer will allow me to personalize materials to meet the needs of all learners.

The Impact:

A color printer will make a significant difference in how students engage with the curriculum. Visuals are especially impactful for early learners, English language learners, and students with special needs. By incorporating more color and creativity into my teaching tools, I can foster a more stimulating and inclusive learning environment.

Your donation will directly support students by making learning more accessible, engaging, and meaningful. Every page printed in color will bring new energy into our classroom.

Thank you for considering supporting our project!
