My Project
What I love most about my students is their creativity, resilience, and determination to succeed, no matter the challenges they face. They have so much potential, and I want to give them the tools to explore it fully. With a Cricut machine and crafting supplies, my students will have the chance to express their creativity while learning valuable skills like design, planning, and teamwork.
Each resource will play a key role in helping them bring their ideas to life.
The Cricut machine will allow them to create custom products like stickers, T-shirts, and cards, while materials like vinyl and transfer tape will teach them about precision and attention to detail. Not only will they gain hands-on experience with entrepreneurship, but they’ll also learn critical life skills like budgeting, marketing, and problem-solving.
This project is about more than just crafting—it’s about showing my students that they can dream big and achieve amazing things. Every item will help foster their confidence, independence, and pride in their abilities. These resources will help us create a classroom environment where they can thrive and build skills they’ll carry into the future.
