My Project

My students are a very diverse group! We express our creativity in so many different ways! We plan to use the Cricut machine to support our Social Emotional Learning and Creativity, use it in our Technology Lab to support our 3D printers, and to make creative projects that support our fundraising endeavors!

The Cricut machine will also support our classroom businesses where students learn about goal setting, business plans, and the importance of responsibility.

The Cricut machine will allow them to create goods and services to help them understand how business turns a profit.
