My Project

I am requesting a color printer, colored paper, and fidgets for our classroom. My students rely on our classroom space to get support for most of their assignments in other classes. Many times this means they are completing high-effort projects in our ELL classroom. I want them to be able to find all of the supplies they need to produce their best work. The color printer and colored paper will help them feel more confident in their work, especially when many of their project-based grades cite presentation as a factor.

Grades 9-12
