My Project
The school district I work in is a Title 1 district. We struggle to get some of the simplest supplies and equipment for our classrooms. Yet we are tasked to make the classrooms as welcoming and inviting as we possibly can with very limited resources.
If life is not simply black and white, why should student work be?
Colors are eye catching and distinctive. With a color printer in the classroom, students can print tables and charts in color from research they do on STEM assignments. With this all-in-one HP, they can also scan hand drawn sketches to put them into slide presentations. This helps to incorporate more technology into their assignments. Our district decided to replace all of the printers in classrooms a few years ago. They removed all color printers, and left us in the dark.
