My Project

Part of being in elementary is allowing students to show their creativity. So many times students and teachers create something in their head and want to make it a reality. However, it is not always possible. So many times I hear of teachers wanting something that does not exist, and I want to support them.

With a Cricut Maker, students and teachers can make their creations come to life.

The maker means you can cut over 300+ materials. This allows for new manipulatives, new projects, and new ideas to become a reality.

In fifth grade, our students study space science and find patterns in the sky. With this machine, the students could bring their ideas to create constellation patterns on our classroom ceiling to help understand the patterns we see in the night sky.
