Engage Through Color

Help me give my students a color printer. I teach students with disabilities and they are primarily visual learners. This would help in printing visual aids to increase their depth of understanding of new material.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Mark's classroom raised $339

My Project

My students are L.E.A.D.E.R.S. in which they do the following:

[L]earn new things every day

[E]very one works as a team

[A]lways prepared for class

[D]oes their very best

[E]ncourages and helps one another

[R]espectful to others

[S]hows responsibility

They came up with this mission statement in the beginning of the year and are model students who follow this every day. Majority of my students attend school beyond the 8am-3pm schedule, as their parents work long hours trying to provide for a better future for their child. Nearly all of my students come from immigrant families, and it is their teachers whom they see the longest, and their classroom where they find the most comfort in.

I witnessed just how much Covid-19 affected them mentally, emotionally, and socially. A handful of my students struggled with the inconsistency of school remaining open due to an uptick in positive Covid cases, working remotely, and some even affected by the BLM protests and Asian hate crimes. I would love for my students to return to school, find newfound comfort in my classroom and succeed.

I am asking for a color printer so that I can print visual aids to support my students' learning. I am a Special Education teacher in a Title I school where materials and resources are limited. My students are primarily visual learners and getting a color printer would significantly help us to provide visual aids to increase their depth of understanding of new material.
