Laminate Galore

Help me give my students resources that will last them the entire school year. Being able to laminate important resources will make sure that students have resources. This way, resources will continue to grow instead of getting destroyed.

My Students

The beauty of working in an extremely diverse school is getting to learn about different cultures and work with a melting pot of students. When every student in my class comes together, they are always learning from each other.

Being in an emergent classroom, it helps me appreciate teaching them even more as I can connect to how they are learning.

My students are always trying their best to learn the English language through visuals and active listening. I am always learning from my students and using what they teach me by observing them to help me better plan my lessons for them. Understanding their struggles, I try my best to make learning fun for them and hope that they enjoy going to school.

My Project

A laminator is a teacher's best friend as it helps preserve all of the materials that can be carried on for years to come. This will allow me to build on student materials. These materials are used for student learning through anchor charts and task cards.

To make learning fun, hands-on activities are a must for ENL and struggling learners.

To help them, having task cards will allow my students to practice the skills necessary to become a reader, writer, and speaker. Since these materials will be used often, having the materials laminated will make it last and make learning fun!
