I need a laminator so I can preserve my students' artwork and create reusable resources for my kindergarten class.
My class has twenty-four kindergarten students who love learning.
They are excited to come to school and love to explore, ask questions, solve problems, and work on projects. At our school, 54% of the students receive free lunch. My students are creative and curious and I want kindergarten to be an amazing experience for them.
My Project
My students create wonderful pieces of art in my class. I want to preserve some so they can take them home and keep them for a long time.
I also want to make sure that I minimize the amount of paper wasted in my class. A simple device like a laminator can help me reduce the amount of paper that I use in my kindergarten class and be able to use printed materials from year to year.
Wouldn't you love to see some of the art work that you created in kindergarten?
In helping my class to get a laminator, you are giving my students the opportunity to preserve some of their art work for the future. You will also help me save time and resources. I am constantly reprinting and rewriting things because they get destroyed with use. Not only is it time consuming, but it is also wasteful. With a laminator, I would be able to create resources that could last for many years.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
