Let's Get Creative!

I need tools to help me create interesting and engaging lessons for my students

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kolesnikov's classroom raised $196

This project is fully funded

My Project

I believe that color printing is a key to a wide range of classroom scenarios. My students enjoy centers, interactive notebooks or different paper based projects that we do. The items I am requesting will help me boost my creativity in providing my students with meaningful engaging lessons and innovation in the classroom.

These resources will help me to create interactive visual aids, handouts, games, activity posters and calendars to support my students with complex concepts.

The sky's the limit when it comes to the visual materials I will be able to use in a color setting.

Color can also spark scholars' imaginations and facilitate the brainstorming process that's essential to creative projects and student engagement.

Most importantly, it can be a tremendous asset for learners of all types, unlocking educational opportunities for everyone in my class.
