My Project

I am writing to request your support for a special project that combines creativity with sustainability. As an educator, I am always looking for ways to engage my students (multilingual learners) and foster their love of learning a new language. With the help of a Cricut Maker, I believe we can create amazing projects that promote sustainability and eco-friendly practices. By utilizing the Cricut Maker, my students will learn English language while creating projects hands-on.

With its precision cutting capabilities, my students can create letters, numbers, unique designs, and shapes that can be used in various reading/writing/speaking projects.

The Cricut Maker is a precise cutting machine that allows us to cut and shape a variety of materials such as cardboard, fabric, and even recycled materials.

By integrating the Cricut Maker into our classroom, I can teach my students about the importance of sustainability and the benefits of recycling. We can also explore ways to reduce waste and reuse materials to minimize our environmental impact. These lessons will help our students develop an appreciation for our planet and inspire them to make a positive impact in their communities.
