My Project

The Cricut has been a teacher’s best friend for creating everything you can think of and dream of for your classroom and home workspace. The creative possibilities are endless, and teachers are customizing their classroom spaces and materials in all kinds of fun and different ways. Using the Cricut machine and a laminator is indeed a necessity for my special education students. With this, we can do a lot of things. They can engage in decorating the bulletin board, front door, and room corners, which also helps their motor skills and hand-eye coordination, especially when using scissors, and even create a goal tracker for their IEPs (Individualized Education Program). With these materials and activities, I am paving the way for our students with disabilities to experience other settings of school activity, which are mostly hands-on and engaging life skills opportunities.

By donating to our project, you will not only be giving the Cricut and laminator machine, but you will definitely reach out to our students with disabilities and give them a chance to feel worthy and a chance to feel successful in every project they are making in the classroom.
