Help me give my students education in color as the color printer will provide them to see an actual color picture of their projects and assignments, because their work is a lot of see and point.

Celebrating 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 Students
I teach special needs to students who need individualized education plans in their class room. My students have specific goals that need to be met in order to help them succeed in the real world as an independent adult. My students need a great deal of encouragement and to be focused on his or her strengths so they could feel they could achieve and live a normal life not feeling overwhelmed or feeling like they are dumb. I believe they are capable of success according to their own individual ability.
My students are in need of a creative positive learning environment.
They love to have fun and explore things they can't at home. They eyes need to be opened to things they may feel they could never do but can. Somewhere they could practice hands on and tasks become familiar to them and they learn what they special skills are or could be. They need structure where they task are broken down and are manageable. They are in need of going out getting a feel and experience of actually doing things that everyday independent people do to maintain a normal life.
My Project
The materials chosen will help my students see actual color for their assignments. As my special needs students already have a more difficult time comprehending and with color print out will allow them to better comprehend new information. The color will help things they are learning be more memorable, and improve their concentration.
Furthermore, the laminator will help to protect the many touch projects they have to complete.
Many of their class assignments are pictures with symbols that they have to touch and match up using as visual aids. A few of my students have difficult time communicating and need color picture symbols to participate and not feel left out of the class discussion or assignment.
