8 MAKER THOUGHTS We like to have Makerspace days for students during lunch periods. We have found all grades, 8-12, seem to enjoy this (especially the 8th & 9th graders). I m hoping to add Minecraft to our Makerspace options this year. Stony Evans, Teacher Librarian, Hot Springs, AR When you move into an area where a student puts up a wall, you can go back to the Makerspace and help them make that connection that it s really the same type of skill for approaching a problem in another area of life. Andy Plemmons Elementary School Librarian, Athens, GA

9 A Makerspace is a unique learning environment that encourages tinkering, play, and open-ended exploration for all. Laura Fleming, High School Teacher, Author, Library Media Specialist, Ridgewood, NJ At the grand opening of the HMS Makerspace, kids flocked to the library. I mean FLOCKED. It was chaos. Beautiful chaos. Heather Lister, Educational Consultant, Hershey, PA I have seen some wonderful things made with only cardboard, masking tape and a marker. Makerspaces are for the students to be able to create what they need, want or find interesting. Michelle Griffith, District Librarian, Brazosport, TX
