My Project
Learning a second language has a lot of challenges. Especially when you have to create projects and learn new words. There is a culture to absorb that has not been experienced before. But when your students are not in the proper headspace, the calming area is the place to go in my classroom.
Adding the Cricut to the calming center will helps bring the student back to a good place by having them create positive motivational stickers and projects instead of thinking of their problems or challenges.
With these items students will be able to create totes, motivational stickers, posters, cards, and even t-shirt irons to keep reminding them its ok to take time to breath and get into the right headspace to learn. We would be very grateful if you could support our classroom. Thanks in advance for your generous donations!
