A Cricut for Christmas!
The first thing many of you teachers are thinking is that I misspelled Cricket, and some are thinking what would I do with a noisy insect. But for those familiar with the Cricut Machine from Provo Craft you will understand why I am suggesting this machine a a gift. The Cricut Machine is simply a giant leap up from you old diacut machines. The Cricut works much like a printer, or more like a plotter with a blade. You choose from a wide selection of cartridges that range from $40 to $60 that either cuts out shapes or letters. This would be the equivalent of buying a dai set for your old diacut machines. The difference is that the cricut can cut in a variety of sizes, from tiny letters up to 24″ tall letters if you get the larger Cricut Expression Machine. This is perfect for bulletin boards, class activities, and hands on instruction. Although the Cricut was originally designed for scrapbookers, they have released several cartridges that are specifically for teachers.
The best place I’ve found for Cricut Machines is CricutDirect.com . There Prices are great, and the service is fantastic. Go take a look to learn more about these amazing machines, and the wide variety of cartridges availible.
