My Project

Our school is unique because of our diverse staff and student body. Our school district can best be described as one happy family. Thirty-three languages are spoken throughout the district. My students are special because they are immersed in an environment where we teach them academics and how to embrace the diverse student body. Learning is happening all over our school. In the classroom students are learning required content, however, outside the classroom, our students enjoy art, music, PE, and now, STEM classes. Our students have opportunities to visit the local zoo and other places in our community, which will inspire them to learn more about the world they live in.

An upadted Cricut Explorer will give me access to create educational resources for my classroom and our STEM Lab for all students to enjoy at our school.

I am requesting at Cricut 4 Explorer so I can create enaging materials for my students to use. I want to teach my students about origami, and this machine can helpe me create origami that can help my student improve their fine motor , andand critical thinking skills.

A Cricut machine in a kindergarten classroom offers several benefits, including creating engaging learning materials, fostering creativity, and promoting hands-on learning. I can make Tshirts for school events. Making our own tshirts at school can save us money and time.

This machine can save me time because the updated software will allow me to create items in bulk without having to hand cut.

Thank you for reading my project and supporting Donors Choose.
