Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 287

I wanted to create a unique space for students that will allow them to be creative, effectively communicate and sharpen their critical thinking skills while they are in the Media Center .  Since every student is unique I wanted different  activities for students to use during their Makers Space time.  Makerspaces allows students to create and produce their own products to not only express their learning but also encompass them into their daily lives.  Thank you, to the generous donor for making Makers Space happen for my students.


Since the day the boxes arrived, filled with unique activites, the students have been having so much fun while learning during their Makers Space time.  It has been so amazing to observe the students choose which Makers Spece activity they would like to participate in.  From coloring books to rubrics cubes to puzzles, every student has found something that has spark their creative engines.
