3D Printer
Station
In this station, students can use a 3D printer to print everything from layers of the Earth to art projects to separate parts for elaborate engineering projects! Includes 3Doodler Start Pen, Fusion3 F400 printer, and Tinkercad software.
Lego Building Station
In this station, students can use legos to build different creative projects and also to help enhance their math skills by giving them a means to represent fractions.
Coding Station
This station includes computers in which the program Scratch, a programming community for kids, is on. Students can learn the basics of coding and programming, and create digital stories, animations, and games.
Standards Addressed
3.V.3.3 Create art using the processes of drawing, painting, weaving, printing, stitchery, collage, mixed media, sculpture, ceramics, and current technology.
35-AP-01 Create multiple algorithms for the same task to determine which is the most accurate and efficient.
35-AP-11 Take on varying roles, with teacher guidance, when collaborating with peers during the design, implementation, and review stages of program development
.NC.3.NF.1 Interpret unit fractions with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 as quantities formed when a whole is partitioned into equal parts;
Trash to Treasure Station
This station includes bins of recyclable materials, old knick-knacks, and random art supplies in which students can use to turn into beautiful art projects or functional objects. Hot glue guns will be provided. This teaches students the value of recycling and reusing and enhances creativity and outside of the box thinking.
Media Production Station
This station includes a green screen, a camera, and an IPad with a green screen animation app installed. Students can create their own short videos/movies and learn how a green screen works.
Sculpting Station
This station includes Model Magic clay, card board slabs, and various decorations (google eyes, pipe cleaners, etc.) in which students can use to create their own unique sculptures.
The general philosophy of my maker space is to give my students a space to be creative and have fun all while integrating topics learned in the classroom and familiarizing themselves with useful technological tools. I want it to be a space in which students can focus on applying their knowledge of a subject in a way that suits their abilities and interests. In this space, students get the opportunity to work independently, collaboratively with other students, and also get one-on-one help with me, the teacher. My classroom innovation lab gives students a space to flex their creative muscles, make mistakes and learn from them, and apply their knowledge in practical ways.
