My Project

My students are always looking for new ways to demonstrate their creativity. They have been asking for a Cricut for another way to bolster their class projects. This will allow them to think even more outside the box. The possibilities are endless; this tool can be used in all subjects.

One way that the Cricut will used is for our Merchant Unit.

Students create and design their own general stores. They are given a budget and need to keep track of their profits and losses. Students will use the Cricut to design a store logo that will help with their marketing and advertising to help make their store successful.
