The library is the central hub of the school. All students will come and go throughout the week. In the library, I would like to set up a Makerspace corner. When students come to the library, I want them to be able to express their creativity in a variety of ways. A Makerspace can be made up of anything that will help students to create, problem solve, develop skills, talents, thinking, and mental rigor. Students are able to see how problems can be solved and encourage them to find ways to solve issues in a way they would not see on paper or on a computer. Some examples include: button maker, friendship bracelets, crafty items, oragami, woodworking building kit, perler beads, 3D pen, stop motion animation camera....and many more!! A makerspace offers something that a traditional class lacks. They are encouraged to come up with new and innovative ideas, while learning to problem-solve.
