Wood Burning in STEM Class!

Help me give my students wood burning tool kits and project wood. I would like to incorporate wood burning into the Arts portion of my STEAM class. I am also always in need of more vinyl for STEAM.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hackett's classroom raised $735

My Project

Part of my students favorite part of STEAM class is the Arts section. We currently have two Cricut machines that we use to create stickers, tshirts, paper projects, etc. However, this year I have incorporated wood burning. I currently have one hand-me-down professional wood burning kit that my students love to use, but it would be very nice to have three more in the classroom so more students can participate at the same time and work together in a small group. The few projects that we have done so far this year have been very creative and fun. I know it would add enrichment and enjoyment to this portion of my STEAM class in the future. Thank you for your consideration.
