Thank you for considering donating to my classroom to benefit my 2nd graders. We appreciate this immensely and are looking forward to a wonderful year in person. It would be wonderful to have a color printer in the classroom to save time and help benefit my students. For each new unit in math and language arts, we give students a colorful picture sheet with "I can" statements that connect with what they will focus on learning that unit. This is referred to by students often, to support their learning. We do not have a color printer available on our campus. Each teacher currently prints these sheets from their person, home computers for each student. Having privacy folders during weekly testing is an essential need. It helps students focus on the task at hand, so that they can show what they know, with minimal distractions. Teachers Pay Teachers in a resource that is used to purchase supplemental materials for our current curriculum.
