Help me give my students different colored copy paper for science class so that they can organize their work and I can identify assignments turned in from different class periods.

Celebrating 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 Students
I have 150 motivated students who want to learn everything about anything. This will be their first experience in a middle school setting. Many of the students come from a low socioeconomic background, with limited resources available. Sparks Middle School, built in 1965, is a Title I school in Nevada, serving 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students with 100% participation in the free breakfast and lunch program.
My sixth and seventh grade science students are incredible and eager to learn with the materials that are given to them and what their teacher can provide.
Students are grouped in teams to build relationships with faculty, staff, and their peers. This allows them to keep the same core set of teachers who will stay with them for their entire middle school journey. Team Texas is home to a diverse group of students.
My Project
I currently teach about 150 sixth and seventh graders science throughout the day. Each period has about 30 students enrolled. Sometimes it gets a little confusing when multiple classes turn in the same assignment. Having these cases of different colored copy paper will allow each class to have "their own" color of paper to turn in.
When we can use color paper for our interactive science notebooks, it makes everything pop!
Having these different colors of paper also helps them organize units. It is the simple things that help organize and run science classrooms, and in this case, we just need some colorful paper. Thank you for helping out with this colorful paper request.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
