My Project

I teach first grade and the majority of work my students do is on paper. We usually have access to Chromebooks, but we don't spend much time on them. They still need to strengthen their fine motor skills and progress in their writing before they can do most of their work on some type of technology. I prefer it this way and wish higher grades would incorporate more paper and pencil work. With that being said, I go through a whole lot of paper each school year.

I would love to have a variety of colored paper so that some of the activities I print for my students can have some pizzazz!

I print so many things and make lots and lots of copies. I added different colorful paper because I like to change it up, especially around holidays. The students love colorful paper! I also added some construction paper for crafts!
