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

Getting a classroom printer can offer several benefits to my students:

Students can quickly print out worksheets, assignments, or resources, reducing waiting time for access to learning materials.

Having printed materials can help students stay organized with handouts and notes, supporting better learning management.

Some students retain information better through physical copies of resources, especially if they struggle with digital formats. Printing can facilitate group work where students need to reference or share printed documents for projects.

Students can print their creative work or projects, which can be helpful for presentations or portfolios.

In case of tech failures or limited access to devices, a printer can ensure students have consistent access to materials.
