In an effort to bring relevant and developmentally appropriate technology to the elementary school, we are looking to create a mini-makerspace we are calling iCreate Space. Our research shows that the design process of making things supplemented with technology helps develop critical and creative thinkers who are able to cooperate with one another. In the iCreate Space students will be asked to brainstorm, design, create and evaluate solutions to “challenges” that address grade level standards in science, math, technology, social studies, language arts and arts. At this point, our iCreate Space is bare. With your help, we could create something completely unique to Miami Dade County Public Schools in a K-12 school where technology is thriving. Teaching new generations to be technologically savvy and safe is important in a community where people may abuse the easy access at times. If we could succeed in bridging the gap between older and younger children in our school, we could potentially start a healthy trend in our public schools. In the long term, our full dedication towards this makerspace will profit by hopefully influencing other schools to also create a makerspace. With our youngest students, we are emphasizing design through the use of Legos and Brickyard bricks. Students will explore force and motion by creating cars and testing them in different scenarios. Our lower-elementary students will use Snap Circuits and LittleBits to explore basic circuitry and develop responses to challenges about creating motion detectors and light sensors. Our upper-elementary students will use Makey-Makey kits to create solutions to everyday problems. The usage possibilities are simply limited to the capacity of our students' imagination.
