It has truly been a gift that opened up new ways for my children to learn, grow, and celebrate their accomplishments.\r\n\r\nMany of my students needed extra support this year, and the Cricut helped turn daily routines into joyful learning moments. On our walks to the playground, they counted the flower cutouts I placed in the hallway, and by the end of the year every child could count to 10 with pride. At our classroom door, they eagerly counted the dinosaurs I made, and soon they were confidently recognizing the number 4 all on their own.\r\n\r\nThe Cricut also sparked excitement for literacy. I created ABC visuals for our walls, and the children would point to the letters and sing the alphabet together. For their portfolios, I used it to add names, words, and pictures. One of my favorite memories was when a child looked at a picture of a train and exclaimed, \"That says train!\"—and she was absolutely right. The look of pride on her face was unforgettable.\r\n\r\nOther teachers in our program have borrowed the Cricut, which means your generosity has touched even more classrooms and children than you might imagine. And now, as I welcome a new class this year, I'm excited knowing they too will benefit from all the creative learning opportunities the Cricut makes possible. We're also working on getting finger puppets next, which will help increase language skills and give the children even more playful ways to learn.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and giving them tools that make learning fun, creative, and full of discovery. Because of you, they not only gained new skills—they gained confidence and joy in the process.","fullyFundedDate":1742934323036,"projectUrl":"project/a-cricut-for-literacy-and-learning/9113696/","projectTitle":"A Cricut for Literacy and Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Murray","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8866286_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756300511483","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/teachercindyspeaks"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_115062","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":52,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":88,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"US Census Data for the surrounding geographic area","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"Census ZCTA","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":115062,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Clackamas Community College Head Start on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Clackamas Community College Head Start","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oregon/office-of-head-start/clackamas-community-college/115062"}
