My Project

My students come into school everyday ready to learn. My goal is to provide them with support and encouragement in our small classroom setting. We need a laminator to helps us preserve student's visual examples, instructions, directions and classroom posters. These lessons' visual aids will withstand the daily wear and tear if they were to be laminated and reduce paper waste.

A laminator will keep the visual learning materials and student projects strong and durable for years to come!

With this laminator we can also wipe things clean, and make things shareable for all our students.

Please provide our classroom with a laminator. My students need durable visuals to use in the classroom and these supplies will allow us to reuse our materials for many years to come.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
