In Living Color

Help me give my students replacement ink and resources that would support our nonfiction unit focusing on biographies.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Everything is better in color! Our unit on biographies could really liven up with the ability to print in color. Even historical figures would be more interesting in color. Resources such as graphic organizers and articles on famous people are more visually appealing in color.

Not all of history is in black and white; Greta Thunberg, Malala, and such are influential and deserve to be in color.

It's funny, because when I do offer color resources provided through a gift card from Teachers Pay Teachers, my students are always grateful and thank me for using my personal printer. Let's make their unit by offering resources and the ability to print in color.
