My Project

The use of instructional materials is part of our daily class routine. It is very easy to use and not that hard to manipulate for my students. As a teacher, it is my duty to provide them with the best possible resources that I could. Having be able to have a printer and a laminator to make my instructional materials lasts longer would greatly benefit not just me but my students as well.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

Students will be able to simply focus on the instructional material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to be worn out or not. They would not have any second thoughts whether or not they would use the instructional materials on hand because it would now be more durable than before.
