We are building a MakerSpace for our PreK through 5th-grade students! Some of our building supplies will be donated by our families and community, such as used Legos and cardboard for building projects. One wall of our space will be a Lego wall. We need base plates for the Lego wall and storage bins for all of our building materials. We also need tools such as scissors, rulers, tape, and glue. These materials will give students the opportunity to get creative and build things with their own hands. We plan to offer open-ended project opportunities, as well as projects related to our curriculum units.
