Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

In government class, primary sources are invaluable; they are the raw materials of history, offering direct insights into the past and allowing students to connect with historical events, figures, and ideas.

Having the ability to print these documents in color will significantly enhance our students' learning experience by allowing them to hold pieces of the past.

It will allow them to examine high-quality copies of important documents, maps, and photographs with greater clarity and understanding. Color copies of historical maps can help students understand boundaries and alliances, and color in political cartoons can reveal themes or emotions from the creator that black-and-white copies might obscure. Seeing these items as they originally appeared when they were created can spark students' engagement and foster a deeper appreciation and understanding of the complexities of history and government.

This project is not just about printing in color; it's about enriching our students' education, allowing them to engage more deeply with the material, and inspiring them to become informed and active participants in our democracy by connecting the past to our present.
