My Project

I teach an advanced class and my students are unorganized. I have a lot of primary source handouts every class period but the staple and hole puncher breaks constantly My students need to be able to have hole punched handouts and be able to place them in their notebook. A class Hole Puncher and Stapler will assist the students with their organizational skills and as a result help them to become academically successful. What is special about this project is that when they have hole punched papers, they are academically happier!
