Items that we need for Maker Club include:
We also use a LOT of recycled materials, and usually the kids are able to bring a few things from home. If parents or community members would like to donate any of the above mentioned items, those donations would save us funds that could be used for purchasing other Maker materials. See the link below for a Maker Club presentation. Please let me know if you have questions or comments about Maker Club or our Maker Lab.
