My Project

A paper shredder would be an asset for my students. We could shred used paper to create fun projects. There are so many artistic projects that could become more visually appealing with neatly shredded pieces of paper.

This would teach the students that some trash could be turned into treasure.

They would also learn that there are materials that can be recycled for other purposes. Another benefit of a paper shredder is that we would be able to dispose of confidential papers in a way that would ensure that the information would not be viewed by others. This paper shredder would help to protect my students' private information.
