My Project

The Makerspace Club is comprised of a group of very creative and spirited 6th, 7th and 8th grade students. My students are funny, curious and very opinionated. They represent a range of neighborhoods and wards from across Washington D.C.

The students will use the supplies and equipment create unique promotional items in the Makerspace Lab that will be used to encourage attendance at the fair.

The students need supplies and equipment to help them fulfill their goal and encourage entrepreneurship. They will also create handmade art, scan the images and display them around the school for students/staff to view. We need a photo scanner, packing tape, paper and markers.

By providing these essential supplies/equipment for my students, they will be able to prepare and execute a great Makerspace Fair. Overall, my hope is to provide the students with a memorable experience. I truly need your support to make this a reality for the students. Thanks!
