My Project
Help! Our button machine broke! We have button supplies...but not the button maker. The high school library would like to once again provide students with the opportunity to use a button machine.
This allows students to be creative and innovative!
Students will generate designs and see a tangible outcome. They will use these personalized designs to make individual buttons in our makerspace area. The button making process gives students an outlet for their emotional well-being and supports individual projects.
These buttons will be used for positive incentives during different celebration months and schoolwide activities, as well.
