Paper Reduction

During some school projects and assignments, students are often allowed to work with other peers. Teachers usually give each student their own set of papers and instructions. If we're working in groups, why can't the whole group just get one set of papers? If we begin to reduce the number of paper we use, less trees will be destroyed. Of course, there is the common issue of the person who has the set of papers not being at school the day they are supposed to work on the project. However, this can be easily fixed by the teacher having one copy of the set of papers/project instructions just in case this is a problem. Seven packets of paper being used per class is far more better than using 24-30 packets per class. Although this isn't completely relevant to getting a new school, this is still a change that would greatly affect our environment in a positive way.
