My Project

Our classroom would greatly benefit from a printer that not only prints in black and white but also in color. The students get more excited when resources, worksheets, anchor charts, etc. are printed in color. It excites them and gets them more engaged in their work.

Having color ink for our printer would be beneficial to the students, especially visual learners.

It would be great to add color pictures next to skills to help them remember and connect ideas. In addition, color can help differentiate worksheets or give reminders to important parts. Adding color to our classroom will give us endless opportunities. Lastly, being able to laminate important sheets and anchor charts will allow longer-lasting resources.
