Right now I am getting the hang of the software for creating. As you can see in the pictures, I have mastered simple cuts and using vinyl for a number of organizing and labeling projects.\r\n\r\nTwo huge projects that I've already tackled is labelling the locations of supplies that students need so they can access them for themselves and labeling the table groups so students always know which group they are in and where to go when being regrouped. I also included four symbols to use for assigning jobs during labs and to choose someone to share out from each group. Just these few things have already made a major impact on my classroom. Students are asking me far less where to find things, what table they are, or which group member they are. In fact, using permanent vinyl for these labels has (so far) eliminated students picking off or pulling up the stickers I was using for groups originally.\r\n\r\nAs I get more savvy with this technology, I will soon be able to have students design and create their own manipulatives, images, etc. for our many arts-integrated lessons.","fullyFundedDate":1756311454304,"projectUrl":"project/crafting-materials-for-a-creative-classr/9303683/","projectTitle":"Crafting Materials for a Creative Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kravitz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1027259_orig.jpg?crop=1816,1816,x609,y315&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1565712329892","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mskravitz"},{"teacherId":8664361,"projectId":9388029,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity!
