How do pre-K-Grade 5 students use MakerLab?

Students enjoy working together and strategizing in the space, also known as the Explore Room/MakerLab1. Whether it’s making pumpkins for a holiday project or creating an engineering plan, students have access to materials and a larger space to spread out, get dirty and bring their imagination to life.

They spend time with Osmo interacting with tangram shapes to solve challenging puzzles; use Sphero to practice coding; enjoy the Makey Makey® micro controller to turn everyday objects into programmed controllers to create music in a computer program; and they also draw code on poster boards to control Ozobots.
