Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The majority of blackline masters are printed in a dull greyscale or black and white copies. The printer I am requesting will make learning more engaging by providing colors that will engage the learner by catching their eye.

My goals for this project is to be able use the printer in my classroom once funded.

I plan to make visually appealing copies to use on my bulletin boards as well as using real-colored visual examples of three-dimensional objects that are not easily seen with black and white copies.

My students are a low socio-economic population of all cultures. Many need visuals since some are English Language Learners with special education.
