My Project

I work with amazing students who have an abundance of creativity and unique ideas just waiting to be shared with the world! Cricut offers endless ways for students and teachers to create meaningful projects. It will support the creation of resources such accountable talk posters, math projects, with educational themes, fun centers to help with small group instruction and it will also support teachers with being able to help students who need more colorful visuals. The Cricut machine will increase a positive environment around the classroom. It will help cut several materials not only paper, making teacher projects easy with time left for other planning. Students will be able to see their work displayed on colorful bulletin everywhere around the room!
