My Project

Centers are a part of every day learning in first grade. My students visit two centers a day. At each center, students complete a hands-on activity and then record their answers on paper. With this binding machine, I will be able to bind together the center work at the beginning of the year for students to keep their center work together all year.

Organization at a young age is a great skill to have.

Students will be able to stay organized because their work will be bonded together in a book. This book will also act as a portfolio for the year's work.
