The materials I have requested will be used on a daily basis. In the Special Education classroom especially, a laminator is a teacher's best friend! Teacher-made materials, student work, and assessment tools will be able to be conserved with a laminator. The colored printer and cardstock paper will allow me to present material that is visually appealing and will fill my bare classroom walls with vibrant colors. The guided reading collection will be the start of my classroom library, providing students with a variety of books to choose from. The microwave will allow me to teach mini cooking lessons for adaptive life skills.
