I already own a laminator that I bought out of pocket, but the cost of the thermal sheets has increased since last school year. I am requesting five packages of laminating sheets and three boxes of velcro fasteners for our classroom. Having the laminating sheets my class uses will help prevent the spread of germs within the classroom. It has been my experience that if I do not laminate an item that will be handled often by students, that item would not last very long. Anything handled by students at this time should be cleaned after each use. Apart from learning aids, I laminate reusable rubrics, self-editing tools, charts and procedures, instructions for an activity, hall passes, and bathroom passes. My students use these items daily to guide their learning and practice. If I can laminate these items, I will be able to wipe them down with antibacterial wipes after each use. This will make our classroom cleaner and safer. The laminating thermal sheets will allow the class materials, hall passes, class job charts, and other items to last longer which will also save on paper and printing costs.
