Media Center Makerspace

‍

Mrs. Lockso is excited to announce that we are starting Makerspaces in the Media Center. Makerspaces provide hands-on learning, creativity, collaboration, tinkering, curiosity, creating, and imagination. It is the perfect time for students to work together to create something new in a student-centered learning experience with a STEAM focus.

‍

We are beginning with the basics and looking to grow our Makerspaces every year. This year we will start with art, crafts, and building/engineering. We will have a builder space, art space, craft space, and puzzle space.

‍

The PTO has purchased several different levels of builder kits, Legos, and K'nex for students to use! They are going to have fun creating and problem-solving!
