Some of my students are nonverbal and can only express themselves by using gestures, pointing, or putting things on paper. My students like to express themselves and even put it in book form. Why not give them the opportunity to express themselves and be creative at the same time? To do these types of projects we need the requested HP printer color and black ink cartridges, laminating paper, and velcro. My students love putting things down on paper. Having a supply of printer ink will give them the opportunity to express themselves and be creative at the same time. Their words could come to life. Not only could the words come to life, but they would be able to print out their words and pictures, laminate them, and velcro them to their books to share with their family and peers.
