Students actively participate in lessons by modeling their thinking on whiteboards, receiving immediate feedback, and correcting mistakes in real time. This has increased student confidence, accountability, and engagement across all subject areas.\r\n\r\nThe Crayola Colors of the World crayons allow students to accurately represent themselves and others in their work. These crayons promote inclusion, cultural awareness, and a sense of belonging, especially during art projects, social studies activities, and self-portrait work.\r\n\r\nThe 180 Days of Social Studies\" book and the Who Was? workbook provides structured, grade-level content that strengthens reading comprehension, critical thinking, and historical understanding. These resources support hands-on learning and help students make meaningful connections to the world around them.\r\n\r\nThe pencil pouches and S-hooks have helped create a more organized classroom environment. Students now have personal storage for supplies, which reduces distractions, increases independence, and maximizes instructional time.\r\n\r\nOverall, this project has had a direct and positive impact on my students' learning, confidence, and classroom experience.

They were thrilled to see how we could turn ideas on paper into beautiful, precise designs, everything from classroom labels to personalized projects. One memorable moment was when we created custom name tags for our reading corner. Students proudly held up their designs, amazed that something they designed on the computer could come to life so perfectly.\r\n\r\nWe're already using the Cricut to enhance lessons across subjects, creating visual aids for math, hands-on activities for literacy, and even decorations for our classroom celebrations.
