My Project

We are asking for carpets and a color printer for our Integrated Co Teaching classroom. In our classroom, we have so many different learning styles. During the Covid 19 pandemic we were forced to maintain a safe distance from each other. However, returning to the classroom community we would like to provide students with comfortable spaces to gather in small groups for learning experiences and discussions.

We know that students feel the most engaged and at ease when they are provided with the tools they need to succeed.

Having a classroom color printer allow us to better differentiate worksheets, create learning tools, and bring color and joy into the classroom.
