My Project

My school needs a Cricut cutting machine. We use bulletin boards and displays throughout the school to share information with students, promote awareness events/celebrations, and teach/reinforce concepts. The students really enjoy the interactive bulletin boards. To create our bulletin boards we are tracing and cutting out letters, buying letters, tracing, coloring, cutting out pictures, or writing directly on the bulletin board paper. This is a time-consuming process. The Cricut machine will be used to create engaging displays and bulletin boards for students. The machine will be a huge time saver and offers a wide variety of design options.

Students need a welcoming and engaging environment to learn, grow, and thrive.

A Cricut machine and the materials that go with it will help to create eye-catching displays in the hallway and on classroom bulletin boards. The Cricut will also help teachers keep their classrooms organized through the use of labels.
