Cricut Capers: Let's Cut to the Fun of Learning!

Help me give my students a Cricut machine so I can create environments, weather systems, solar systems, and much more to reinforce learning in an interactive way in STEM class.

My Project

I often do things like stop-motion animation, physical computing with the Makey Makey, and robotics. The Cricut can be used in coordination with all these fun and interactive tools. I plan on using the Cricut to print things that match the curriculum such the water cycle, life cycles of animals, storytelling, and simplifying complex learning objectives. We can use these pictures, diagrams, and shapes to support learning.

Students will have hands-on manipulatives that teachers can build with the Cricut.

The possibilities are endless! This Cricut will be used by multiple teachers and help the school create their own materials.
