Makerspaces provide hands-on, creative ways to encourage students to design, experiment, build and invent as they deeply engage in science, engineering and tinkering. Sometimes Makerspace activites are referred to as STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) or STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art and Math).
Here are some sites for you to get you started. Remember to always look around to see what is already available at home.
