Create and Make With a Makerspace

Help me give my students tools to inspire creativity, innovation, and discovery through a designated maker space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Adams's classroom raised $465

My Project

Male students need music, movement, and manipulatives to memorize content and be motivated. I work at an all-male academy where the students are brilliant and creative. However, we need a space where these creative minds can continue to explore.

Providing a maker space will help my students become inspired, showcase their creativity, be innovative, and discover more through hands-on learning opportunities.

This collaborative space will help students explore and share with both low-tech and high-tech tools.

Your donation will help me procure a host of manipulatives that will encourage my students to explore, design, experiment, and build with their imaginative ideas. Please donate to help my students take risks to continue their learning journey.
