My Project

I am a Special Education Teacher in District 75 and just recently changed schools. I used to teach K-2 but now I teach 3-5th grade so I am in the process of making all new learning tools and a laminating machine is a key factor in making these materials.

My students need many different tools to learn a skill and one important tool is laminated pictures.

I create laminated communication boards, picture boards to answer questions about the skill being taught and laminated schedules. I laminate all materials that can be reused day to day because one skill can be taught for the week. The enjoy using the dry erase markers on the laminated boards. My students benefit from the laminated materials.
