My Project

Paper makes the world go around! In a classroom, copy paper and printer paper are like gold! Imagine needing a quick assignment or an important document printed, but you don't have paper to use. Now take that to the next level and picture all year with no paper for worksheets, classwork, homework, assessments, and every thing that makes a classroom work.

Having copy paper will provide me a way to print all materials for my students throughout the year.

With the new budget cuts from the mayor, we as teachers are unable to be supplied copy and printer paper. This means it will have to come from our own pockets. Teacher do not make enough money to supply paper for a month, let alone a year. Please help my class!
