My Project

My students love bringing their creativity to life, and the Cricut Maker has opened up a world of possibilities for our classroom! Now, we need the right materials to keep the creativity flowing and to turn our ideas into reality. We are asking for different types of vinyl and transfer sheets, These materials will allow my students to make colorful crafts and classroom projects that they can be proud of. The first art project will be personalizing pencil pouches—each student will design their own using colorful vinyl and tools, creating something that's not only useful but a reflection of their unique personality.

These pouches will keep their supplies organized and become a daily reminder of their creative voice.

These supplies will not only support learning but will also help build confidence, creativity, and teamwork in our classroom. Representation matters—especially in the classroom. With these supplies, my students will have the opportunity to create projects that reflect their identities, cultures, and voices.
