Maker’s Day is held once a month in the library and encourages students to create and work together at various creation stations. All of the Maker’s Days this year will focus on collaboration which aligns with our AVID school goals. Students hear a story for inspiration that day and then choose a station. In October, students listened to the story The Little Red Fort and chose from Legos, snap toys, Magni tiles, tinker toys and a light box. Here are some second graders collaborating with their peers and some of their creations. In November students will listen to Bear Came Along and will collaborate with their peers at various creation stations.
