Laminating and Printing Our Projects and Pictures

Help me give my students ink, a laminating machine that is big enough to laminate their projects so they can be preserved and displayed, and some paint sticks!

My Project

Our children love to do art. When we laminate them they last so much longer and we can preserve them. We have found they love to use paint sticks to do art with on paper and will use them every day. So needless to say we go through a lot of paint sticks..

They want us to save "their" projects but we need a bigger laminator to be able to do that.

They love to have their picture taken and of their parents and siblings and will go look at the pictures several times a day, so the printer ink will help us to print more pictures out.

These are young low income children who are away from their parents for the first time, so anyway we can help calm their fears helps their social emotional being and makes them more comfortable and feel loved, and if looking at a picture of their parent helps them, I want to be able to do that for them.
