My students are self-motivated to learn anything about everything! They question constantly to seek answers but also question those answers. They form opinions based on new learning and love to look for evidence. They are inspired daily to be better people from their families, friends, classmates, and school. The students in my class are driven to succeed and work hard to be the best that they can be. They are a joy and pleasure to work with and learn from. I team with other teachers and now can count over 90 students as my mine. They all work well together and love switching classes to experience different teachers and different class configurations.
My Project
My students will learn to use this Cricut in order to create amazing pieces of artwork! They will have the capability to create class quilts, stickers, posters for group projects, t-shirt logos to instill pride, covers for their notebooks, gift tags and cards to share with a friend. They will be able to create 3D projects as well that can be used in all areas of the curriculum such as layers of the Earth or a 3D diagram of a plant! This machine will teach students about creating and crafting. It will open another door for them to be creative that they haven't been exposed to
More than a third of students from low‑income households
