Amplify Maker Magic

District Lead: Karrie Chajkowski 

Strategic Plan: Student Experiences and Opportunities and Achievement

PGP Alignment: Planning & Preparation

In this hands-on session, we’ll explore how to integrate Amplify’s literacy components with both low-tech and high-tech Makerspace tools to demonstrate learning, collaborating with teachers across the district to share ideas and spark interest. Teachers will walk away with a project plan for one of their Amplify units, a rubric, and the ability to use and manipulate the maker tools we have at our schools in their classrooms. Whether you're using cardboard and scissors or coding and circuits, you’ll discover powerful ways to bring texts to life and deepen comprehension through making.
