My Students

I need a laminator so I can keep all the resources that I produce for my classroom and my students.

At our school, 57% of the students receive free or reduced price meals.

I have 28 second graders who are eager to learn. My students love to come to school and be part of our wonderful class community. They are curious, hard working and love to learn.

My Project

I want to make sure that I minimize the amount of paper wasted in my class. I am constantly reprinting and rewriting things because they get destroyed with use. Not only is it time consuming, but it is also wasteful. With a laminator, I would be able to create resources that would last for a long time.

A simple device like a laminator can help me reduce the amount of paper that I use in my class and be able to use printed materials from year to year.

In helping my class to get a laminator, you are helping me save time and resources.
