My Project

As a first year elementary educator in a New York City Public School, I've been blessed with the task of teaching a class of 19 1st grade scholars. What an exhilarating year it has been so far! One of my biggest struggles thus far, however, has been printing resources as there are limited printers in my school.

By adding a printer to my classroom, I hope to create more hands-on activities for my students.

Please help in bringing hands-on activities to my wonderful young minds in this age of digital learning.

This printer will allow me to print, copy and scan lessons, activities and documents, as well as weekly newsletters, without missing a beat of classroom instruction.
