Bringing Art to Life
Funded Aug 18, 2016Thank you so much for your generosity! My students have benefited so much from the toner cartridges for our printer. Due to budget cuts supplies such as ink and toner are items that are not necessarily priority items so its a real treat for us to have this resource.
When my students saw that our color printer was up and ready for them to use their little eyes sparkled with joy and I could almost see their imaginations take flight with all the projects they had planned.
Now with our color printer we are able to print out their own art creations such as the holiday cards they created this past December.
Thank you once again for your donation!”
With gratitude,
Mr. Reyna
Bringing Literacy to Life
Funded Oct 13, 2015Thank you so very much for your generous donation to my students. My students have benefited greatly from our new color printer. Although it seems obvious to everyone that schools and classrooms would have color printers this is not the case in our school or district. Technology items such as printers are not necessarily priority items. With our new color printer my students have been able to print their mini books and short stories and have seen them come to life. Once my students started to see their stories and books printed it inspired them to write more and create more. This has opened up a brand new and endless list of possibilities of what they can do as authors and illustrators.
Before having a color printer all my students were able to produce were black and white/grayscale copies of their writing and illustrations. While this was still exciting for them it wasn't very professional looking and they would say "if only this was in color it would be so much better!" Now that they are printing in color their faces beam with pride when they put together their books and stories.
My struggling writers and especially my English language learner students have particularly benefited and enjoyed our new color printer. Seeing their classmates create, write and publish their work has inspired and motivated them to give it a try and they have been surprised with what they have been able to do.
As an educator and as a parent it warms my heart to see how something as easy and simple as a color printer can impact the lives of our youth! Thank you once again!”
With gratitude,
Mr. Reyna
