Making Makers!

Help me give my students independence in the school Maker Space so their creativity can shine!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Chisholm's classroom raised $922

My Project

Our students love to get creative! These are all tools that will be in the school Maker Space. Our Maker Space is a place where students can build anything they imagine. We want to make sure the space has something for everyone!

We want to make sure that the Maker Space is accessible to all learners, so we are looking to add some more materials.

The saw allows young students and students with physical differences to independently cut thick material. The button maker created a tangible project for reluctant makers. The air tube and air tent create a space for students who are not ready to make or are looking for a calm place while they plan a project.

The space promotes creativity. They allow students to access materials and create without barriers. By donating to this project, you will give independence to a our learners allowing their creativity to shine.
