My Project

We are building a Maker Space in our school, and this Maker Cart is our dream! It has supplies and tools that would enable our entire student body to participate in maker activities, assignments, and engineering challenges!

We are in the business of building tomorrow through the children of today.

These children need creative problem-solving skills that will help them solve the complex problems they will face as they go out into the world. Building and engineering challenges don't necessarily require great reading or math skills, so they are a great equalizer in the classroom. All you need is a good idea and a way to make it real! With this maker cart, that is possible!
