Laminate and Create: Tools for Engaged Learning

My Project

Laminating sheets will allow us to create durable, reusable learning materials that students can use again and again. From flashcards and center activities to reference charts and game boards, laminating helps preserve resources so they last all year—and even for years to come. Students will be able to write on them with dry-erase markers, making them perfect for hands-on practice in math, reading, and vocabulary.

With just laminating sheets and sticky notes, you're not just giving supplies—you’re giving my students the power to think, write, interact, and learn in ways that stick.

Sticky notes are a simple but powerful tool for student engagement. They will be used during lessons for quick check-ins, brainstorming, interactive notebooks, and reading comprehension activities like making predictions, asking questions, or summarizing text. Students love using sticky notes to jot down ideas and physically interact with what they're learning—it makes their thinking visible and helps boost participation.

Together, these materials will support a more interactive, organized, and student-centered classroom. With laminated resources that can be reused and sticky notes that encourage expression and reflection, students will have the tools they need to take ownership of their learning in creative and meaningful ways.
