I did by the kits from Follett for all of our schools in the district.  I also found lots of good activities at Barnes and Noble.  They had a mini Maker Fair this weekend.  They seem to be very helpful.

Subject: [CASL-L] Makerspace activities

 

Good morning-

I am looking for makerspace activities for my middle school library media center (grades 6-8). Due to our scheduling, students only have one free period a day to visit the library. The activities should be something that can be done in one class period and, ideally, be reused with another group. 

 

Does anyone have suggestions for activities or can you recommend good places to buy some activities/kits?

 

Thank you! I appreciate your help.
