My Project

How will the specific items you’re requesting make a difference in their learning?

We are a 2nd grade inclusion class.

My students love to tell stories, write stories, and illustrate their stories. Unfortunately, much of their artisic detail gets lost in our black and white photocopies. We are requestion a classroom printer that allows us to print our documents in color.

What are your goals for this project?

We see the world in color. It just makes sense to see our documents in color, too. This project will help us create vibrant, eye catching documents to share with our friends and families. Please help us get a color printer for our class.

What makes your students special?

My students all have different abilities and interests. Their ability to connect, share, and work together regardless of their differences makes them special. My students love creating an inclusive classroom and work very hard to be contributing members of our classroom community. This printer well help us share even more!
