My Project

Our students would love to have a laminating machine to help them preserve their hard work when they create charts, chants, art, etc. They spend a lot of time and effort publishing writing pieces, completing social studies/science projects, and creating beautiful pieces of art. In order to help students preserve their hard work and efforts, a laminating machine would make keeping students' work last longer. Additionally, when students create special holiday projects for their families, these special keepsakes can last a lot longer, too. I included additional basic supplies such as ring clips, black pens, and felt markers in hopes to create laminated keychains that the students can make as a keepsake.
