Creating with Cricut

Help me give my students what they need to create the best poetry project. The inside is the heart of their project but the cover is where they can shine. The Cricut materials will help!

My Project

As technology advances, there are many different ways to design our poetry books for our poetry project. Not only did students get to stretch their imaginations, but they also got to use something new. Our class was lucky enough to have a Cricut donated, now we need the materials to keep it going, like additional vinyl, card stock, and cutting mats. Please help my students advance with the times. I look forward to showing you their new designs and more projects in the future. This poetry book project is a yearly project that has been changing lives for over 15 years.
