My Project

We recently received a Cricut to make personalized incentives for our students. Now that we have our machine, and learned how we can make various crafts as items of artistic expression and motivation, we would like to receive technology which will aid in making the most professional looking items as possible.

Students are looking forward to using this new technology to create professional, wearable, graphic designs and craft projects.

An EasyPress will allow crafts to adhere to vinyl and bonded fabric properly and maintain fabric integrity. Our students will be able to use the EasyPress to help design and create products for themselves, as well as school teams and organizations.

By having an EasyPress, students will be able to experience cooperative learning, apply critical thinking skills to the task at hand, as well as work on responsible decision making. The great thing about the EasyPress is that it provides professional results, yet it is the perfect size for a school setting.
