My Project

As I begin to start a new year I realized the amount of cardstock and ink I use for the classroom. We print a lot of learning materials throughout the year and it last longer on cardstock before we laminate it. The most important things printed are name activities.

I enjoy printing multiple name projects to ensure the students learn how to identify and write their names throughout the year.

To see the excitement on their faces as they continue to master their handwriting is one of the best parts of the year. Progress from tracing, to copying, to writing it on their own.

While writing their name is important i have noticed our scissors are starting to get stiff and sticky. A nice new set will make cutting a little easier for these young scholars.
