Some students have really enjoyed making friendship bracelets with the beads you provided. Also, the small bins make it easy to store these new materials and helps keep the makerspace organized. \r\n\r\nThese new resources have really helped me building a makerspace for my students and I'm so happy I can now provide them with a more enriching experience.
