Description
This bundle includes 40 differentiated Maker Stations (Makerspace Activities) for Maker Spaces with both a K-1st Grade version and 2nd-5th Grade version.
Maker Stations provide targeted design thinking and space-saving solutions for elementary classrooms and media centers. They allow for a creative Makerspace atmosphere, emphasizing skills in engineering, art, math, science, technology, and music. 40 differentiated Maker Station options are provided with supply lists, instructions, QR code resources, and student planning/reflection templates. Common arts and crafts materials and STEM Bins are suggested for each station and can fit inside a large utility caddy.
App extensions are provided for students to share and present creations.
“Ask an Expert” table tents are also provided to encourage peer coaching.
Maker Stations can be used in the following ways:
1) WEEKLY MAKER STATION: Groups of 2-4 students visit the Maker Station weekly on a schedule of your choosing. (i.e. one group each day) Students will need approximately 30 minutes to fully complete a Maker Station. You may use the provided scheduling options in the separate file to track daily rotations.
2) MULTIPLE MAKER STATIONS: Up to six Maker Stations set up at once, with small groups of 3-4 students rotating through each station. If you choose this option, I recommend using the editable schedule cards (separate file) in a pocket chart to track rotations.
3) WHOLE CLASS MAKER STATION: Project one Maker Station and provide materials for the class to complete together.
4) TASK CARDS FOR MAKERSPACE: Print the Maker Station cards
quarter-sized (available in separate file). Put 4-6 cards on a ring for students to complete during Makerspace time.
Includes the following differentiated stations:

Ashley R. –
WOW! My kids are so excited to work more independently on STEM projects during our center time! They love how interactive these are! Thank you! -Ashley R.
Colby Malloy –
These fun activities are just right for my students. It allows me to set up these activities with little to no prep and then they are able to take it from there. I love that there are QR codes to videos for them on the pages to use. This allows them to work at their own pace. Love these and so glad I bought them! -Colby Malloy
Katy P. –
These are AWESOME! We used them a little differently, laminated the sheets and put them on a binder ring. Students were responsible for collecting the materials they needed from our Creation corner. We have a school-age childcare program-our older kids (3rd-5th) especially loved them! -Katy P.

My students have a lot of energy so I like to buy resources requiring students to be moving around the room and collaborating with their peers. This will meet the needs of all my learners. I am amazed at the differences in their conversations when learning through STEM instead of just regular games or activity sheets. -kelly W.
Snippets From Second –
Every Brooke Brown product is a win! These activities work perfectly for our classroom Maker time. Every activity is organized and clearly explained, which makes it very easy to prep. I also appreciate the technology component. The QR codes allow students to dig a little deeper, gain some background knowledge, and work more independently. Thanks so much for all the work that went into this. My students absolutely love it! -Snippets From Second
