This school year the Makerspace has been a happening place for the Kindergarten through 6th grade students! What is Makerspace? It is a collaborative workplace for students to create, invent, tinker, and learn.
Our first project this year was, designing and creating a tree house using toilet paper rolls, construction paper, yarn, popsicle sticks, tape, cups, hot glue, and straws. Next, the kids used 3D pens to create a Halloween project - ghost, jack-o-lantern, bat, spider, skeleton.
Currently they are working with squishy circuits. When using squishy circuits, they have to use conductive and insulating play-doh to create a circuit using lights, beepers, and vibration boxes.
*Disclaimer - I have taken over 150 pictures, but I am only allowed to share 10, so not everyone will be pictured. More pictures to come later in the year after we complete more projects/activities.
