The Proof is in the Print!

Funded Aug 25, 2016

Dear Donors,

Thank you so much for the color printer and ink that was purchased for my classroom. This printer has given me and my students the opportunity to supplement learning with quality visual aids. My students are thrilled that we have access to this printer all during the school day!

For students learning English as a second (or third) language, such as my students are, pictures and organizers are essential, especially when learning beginning English vocabulary. This printer has allowed me to print flashcards, visual organizers, sorting activities, and pictures to accompany stories and informational texts. Having these visual aids printed clearly and in color truly makes a better learning experience for my students.

Perhaps the most exciting feature for my students is the ability to publish their work. Many of my students do not have computers or printers at home, so having this printer allows them to print their projects at school and take home to share with their families. Student work has also been printed and displayed in the classroom and hallways. Students feel so accomplished when peers and teachers admire their work. The color printer has given students the opportunity to add pictures or borders to their writing pieces, if they choose to do so.

Thank you again for making a difference in my classroom and in the lives of my students!”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Rieber
