Laminator Needed to Protect Individual Mini Anchor Charts!

Help me give my students a laminator to help protect their individual personal mini anchor charts!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Forchette's classroom raised $168

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

A laminator will give me the opportunity to create individual learning materials to reinforce students learning.

A laminator will keep the visual learning materials durable for years to come!

I am a Self-Contained LLD teacher. I have students in third, fourth and fifth grade. Each of my student have a “tool kit folder”. In their “tool kit” are colored copies of anchor charts that I make throughout the year. I encourage my student to use their “tool kit folder” for help when working on an assignment. The laminator will help protect and preserve their individual mini anchor charts that are essential for learning in my classroom.
