Innovative Maker Space Opportunity

Help me give my students an outlet to channel their creativity through our maker space and choice station in my classroom.

My Project

School is much more than just developing our students' academic knowledge. They need an outlet to channel their creativity. School should also provide an opportunity where students can create, socialize, problem solve, and so much more! That's why I would like to establish a makerspace in my classroom.

Through this maker space area with the requested marble run, brain toy, magnetic tiles, play dough, tag board, and other resources, our first graders will learn to communicate, build confidence, face trials and errors, engineer inventions, develop their fine motors skills, and more.

The tasks are difficult but with teamwork, endurance, and some imagination, I have no doubt my students will be able to complete their tasks...and have fun while they do it!
