Help me give my students color laser printers. We need to print pictures!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pigne's classroom raised $535
This project is fully funded
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 work in a high poverty area, in the Bronx, NY. My students are severely underserved, and my school has very limited resources. When the students find a task too difficult, they act out. I have noticed that when they 'get it,' they pay more attention. I want to teach the kids content plus skills. I service a self-contained, special education population with various disabilities. Some of the disabilities are Intellectual Disability, Learning Disability, ADHD, and Emotional Disturbance.
Most of my students are visual and kinesthetic learners; having lab materials will make the lessons more engaging for them.
My Project
I believe that color pictures release endorphins and keeps students more interested. There are times, a black and white photo copy is just not enough. What if I can print out some things in color and give it to students or hang it around the room.
There are times when students are so excited to complete their projects, but get sad that they don't have access to color printers; but we can change that.
I am asking for two laser printers so that I can provide the students with colorful worksheets and pictures at least once a month. I also look forward to them getting excited to do their projects. A chance for colorful work will keep my students interested.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
