Creating a Colorful Environment!

Help me give my students the ability to print in color. I want to give my students to see material, examples and projects in color so having a color printer will allow me to create a more colorful classroom.

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

In my classroom, I have 25 students. My students work a lot in their academic teams. When working in teams my students often work on creating colorful projects. When we print the copies come out in black and white. Providing them the opportunity to print their images in color will allow us to display the projects in a creative way.

Having a color printer will also allow me to print resources and examples for students to see.

It can often be challenging for students to see good examples in black and white. Also, having color in the classroom will help to create a more cheerful environment that my students will be more eager to engage in. This project will not only help my students but me as well.
