We have a maker space at our school. It is located in the media center and is utilized by the media specialist. Time constraints limit the size and scope of maker space in the classroom. We normally conduct STEM activities that support maker spaces.

Our Maker Space, is part of the after-school program, it provides students with an opportunity to engage in hands-on, project-based learning outside regular school hours. Scheduled sessions focus on various themes like robotics, coding, and crafting, allowing students to choose and develop their projects.

Our maker space is shared by 3 districts and is in our shared vocational technical school. There was an optional camp this summer that introduced the tools and provided time to create a lesson that could be completed in the maker space. Busing will be provided when it is time to complete the lesson.

Those are amazing opportunities! Does anyone have any great ideas for funding sources for consumable materials or larger scale items to incorporate into the maker space?
