My Project

I would like to create more engagement for my students diagnosed with Autism. My students have language delays, and/or attention issues that make it difficult for them to listen to stories. Incorporating Big Books allows for more engagement and motivating shared reading experiences, especially after they are adapted to my students needs. The Classroom Cricut and laminating paper will help with these adaptations.

The Cricut is a powerful tool for differentiation.

With it, I can create customized learning materials for students with different needs and learning styles. The Cricut can make tactile aids for visual or kinesthetic learners, create personalized flashcards, or design manipulatives for my students with Autism.

All I need is a place to store the classroom Cricut as well as all our fabulous Big Books and that’s where I need your help!
