My Project

In my kindergarten class, we are always making books. In fact, we write 6 total books ranging from picture books to non-fiction pattern books. We love to write our own books, but we struggle keeping them together for others to read. A book binding machine will help us keep our original books together for others to enjoy.

Encourage my students to become authors!

Whether we are writing our own stories or making a class book, we love to share our books with our peers and families. A book binding machine will help us keep our books organized and neat.

Kindergarteners love to write books and this machine would spark even the most reluctant writer to write a book. This project would be a game changer for my classroom!
