My Project

Throughout the year, well actually every single day, my students enjoy working with colorful printed activities in both math and/or literacy. I am requesting an abundance of ink and cardstock to help make this a possibility! This year we have a new math curriculum and it has lots and lots of wonderful games and activities that need to be printed and laminated. Now I could print them on the school printer…uhhh when it is working that is, but the games would be in boring black and white, not in color!

Of course, we want these fun new games and activities in color, so it has to be printed using our classroom printer and ink is an expensive necessity!

While my students do very few worksheets, we do many, many games and activities and heavy-duty paper and color is obviously more attractive to them. Therefore, in addition to the ink I am requesting white cardstock and laminating pouches so the materials will last for many other children to enjoy!

I teach the most wonderful group of 5 and 6 year old children at a Title I school in North Carolina. They are kind, funny, and resilient. Even though their home life can sometimes be a struggle, they are some of the hardest working kids I have ever taught! I am truly blessed! Thank you for helping my kiddos enjoy a colorful year!
