199. My Favorite Starter Projects for Makerspace Success [Back to School STEM Tips Series]

If you have a low or no budget going into your STEM classroom but are wondering what lessons to teach kids, my go-to is Makerspace lessons. 

There is some prep work to gather supplies to make it happen, but it’s one of the best ways to have hands-on lessons in your classroom that are still engaging. 

I’ll be sharing my top three favorite themes when teaching Makerspace to students in K-5. These are units where every grade level has its own lesson to jump into, along with what you can do if you only see kids once a week.

Resources Mentioned:

• Easy 1-Day Makerspace Challenges 
• STEM Survival Camp K-5 Lessons
• Earth’s Engineer’s K-5 Lessons
• STEM-usement Park K-5 Lessons
