Maker Space

I've been intrigued for awhile about the idea of a "Maker Space". I'm sure every educator would agree - I wish we had a larger classroom, one where there was room for storage, specific reading areas and space where students could go to demonstrate their inventive, innovative and creative qualities.

I do not have much room, but I have taken a corner of my classroom and turned it into our make-shift "maker space". In this corner we have our green screen, a green cube, legos, play-doh, building blocks and various artistic tools. Students use this area for projects, free time etc to showcase their exceptional innovative skills.

It's not much, but it works!!
