Printers Are Always Needed!

Help me give my students a printer. In our classroom, students work hard to produce written assignments, and creative projects—but with access to a printer, they will have the chance to see their work in its final, form.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Whitener's classroom raised $738

My Project

A classroom printer and a supply of ink would greatly enhance student engagement and give them more ownership over their learning. It would also make it easier for me to provide individualized materials and print student-created content for display and sharing.

Having access to a classroom printer would allow students to print their work for review, and collaboration.

It would also help me provide individualized practice sheets, visual aids, and assessments that support different learning styles—especially in small groups or intervention settings.

A printer may seem like a small tool, but it would make a big impact on our students’ ability to engage with math in meaningful, and hands-on ways with much a big effect on learning and success.
