My Project
Would you rather see things in black and white or a rainbow of colors? I agree! Please, give me the color! Our school only has a black and white Ricoh printer that the entire staff shares. The pages tend to come out smeared from 20+ classrooms printing all day. We cannot see our hard work or student photos and printed sheets with our games do not look engaging or inviting with just black ink. My preschoolers would greatly benefit from color ink cartridges to use with an old, donated Canon MG3122 printer we recently were gifted by a fellow teacher! "We are rainbows, me and you. Every color, every hue."
Color is naturally engaging for all learners--black and white can be more difficult to absorb when compared with the interactive media students consume regularly.
Color can spark imaginations and facilitate the brainstorming process that's essential to creative projects and student engagement. While color improves the educational experience for all students, it can be transformational for students with learning disabilities. Color printing is a powerful asset to students and educators. We use color for a variety of purposes in the classroom, from visual aids to student handouts and photos and beyond. We learned our letters names and sounds! Now, we are practicing listening for the beginning sound in words and we started writing our own simple books! When we finish writing a story that makes sense, we turn them into Little Bird Tales! We really want to be able to print our books in colorful, bright ink and share these imaginative stories with friends and family. I told all our preschoolers that this year, they would become authors and illustrators! Please, help us get color ink for our classroom!
