Collecting Makerspace Materials!

This year in the library, we have started a little Makerspace, which is an area with materials for students to solve problems, explore ideas, and design solutions. 

Makerspaces have recently become a very popular and essential area in many libraries because they physically bring our shared visions of collaboration, creation, and exploration to life through raw materials. Students have really been enjoying the opportunity to be creative and invent whatever comes to mind. 

Some current materials in our Makerspace cart include crayons, markers, play dough, pipe cleaners, paper towel tubes, felt scraps, and construction paper. We are collecting recyclable materials that could be useful for our Huskies' creative minds. If you have any of these things laying around or would be willing to share whatever you can spare, materials will be accepted for the rest of the school year!
