Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students have a strong desire to read diverse books. They love participating in read-alouds, arts and crafts, and discovering books on their own. My students also enjoy learning through hands-on instruction. Receiving this project will help me get each child their own copy of Dusty’s Awesome Alphabet Sounds and create a classroom that’s innovative and most of all high functioning to best meet the needs of each one of my students. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

My Project

It is my goal that with the Cricut Explore 3 listed in this project, I will be able to have access to quick manipulatives that will help enhance my students' learning. Having access to a craft maker will help me maximize my time to accommodate each of my students' learning needs. As a second-year teacher, my goal is to create a classroom that is innovative and, most of all, high functioning to best meet the needs of each one of my students. With the Cricut Maker, one of the ways I will be able to achieve this goal is by creating personalized labels and name tags for my students.

I also plan on using the Cricut Maker to provide arts-integrated instruction by allowing my students to participate in customized arts and crafts related to our curriculum.

Unfortunately, during the COVID -19 pandemic, my students were not able to participate in many arts-integrated activities due to a lack of materials and funding. I will be using the Cricut Maker to provide arts-integrated instruction related to Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies to extend their understanding. I would like to incorporate arts-integrated lessons using the Cricut Maker to meet the needs of my kinesthetic learners to continue to keep all my students excited and engaged in learning.
