My preschool students are in critical need of a classroom printer. I would like to be able to fill our classroom walls with beautiful illustrations from books we've read, pictures of the children working on projects together, and visuals that support classroom routines. A quality color printer is a key asset in a wide range of classroom scenarios. Pictures can increase my children's' understanding and engagement in the classroom. Visual supports can be especially helpful for the children in my classroom with special needs by giving them another way to communicate, instead of relying on verbal communication. Please help me provide my students with this basic, but extremely important classroom resource and foster a lifelong love of learning!
