Makerspaces

How:

Sometimes this is also called Tinker Spaces. It is a place where we take things apart and tinker with them to see how things work. This is a workshop model where the genius discovers what works by trying things out and asking questions. Trial and error.


Mystery Science - Lessons that inspire kids to love science

Project Based Engineering - Activities for building and designing with everyday objects

Laboratory at Home - STEM projects to engage your scientists

Think Indigenous - Online Facebook community connecting with teacher, elders and knowledge keepers who share Indigenous learning


Why:

Aha! The world’s best inventors know the hard work is needed, but also the ability to see things from new perspectives can help us solve challenging puzzles. It feels great to invent/design/build and this surge of excitement connects our brain to lasting memories.
