My Students

My students are an energetic, fun, and eager group of 6 and 7 year old children. They are hard workers that are excited to learn each and every day.

My students love to learn through hands-on activities.

It is so important that they are provided with the resources they need to be successful for the rest of their lives.

Our school provides a warm and loving atmosphere for students where the faculty goes above and beyond in partnering with families to ensure each child's success in and out of the classroom.

My Project

My request is for a Cricut machine to use in my classroom for several purposes. The Cricut will be used to create individualized flashcards, writing prompts, bulletin boards, games, and so much more. These items would be used throughout all subjects and would make my materials last longer, rather than creating new things year after year. When I prep materials each week, I still trace or print and cut things by hand. While I plan on continuing with these practices as needed, the use of a Cricut machine would greatly decrease the amount of time I spend preparing materials for my students.

By funding this project you are allowing me to put more time into teaching and less time into prepping.

You are helping me to provide my students with hands-on learning that will help them become lifelong learners!
