My Project

I teach an energetic and inquisitive group of second graders in a diverse, multicultural, and low-income community. My students come to school eager to learn, but many lack access to the resources that would help them thrive. They are creative, curious, and hardworking, and I strive to provide them with engaging materials that reflect their unique backgrounds and learning needs.

A color printer would be a game-changer for our classroom!

Currently, we rely on black-and-white printouts, which limit the effectiveness of visual aids, anchor charts, and student projects. With a color printer, I can create engaging worksheets, vibrant learning displays, and culturally relevant reading materials that help my students connect with the content.

Having access to color-printed materials will also support our literacy and math instruction by allowing me to print leveled readers, math manipulatives, and interactive center activities. In addition, it will enable students to showcase their creativity in writing and art projects with high-quality printed materials.

Our school serves a high percentage of students from low-income households, and resources are often stretched thin. Your generosity will help ensure that my students have the engaging, high-quality materials they deserve. With a color printer in our classroom, learning will become even more exciting and meaningful!
