My Project

As a special education teacher, I am always modifying and differentiating assignments to help my students learn their best. Much of our work is done electronically but many of my students learn best from the old fashioned way with paper and pencil.

I would love to have a printer in my classroom to be able to give my students these tools throughout the day, as they need them.

I also would love to have a printer on hand to print out images for students. Students will be able to add pictures to their creative projects and showcase their understanding in multiple ways.
