Students also have the opportunity to bring in a game and teach their classmates. They learn to work as a team and follow rules while having fun as they play board games together. 

Makerspace

Makerspace has come to Our Redeemer library time!  A Makerspace is just what is sounds like – an area where people get together to make things. Makerspace provides students with the opportunity to conceptualize, collaborate, problem solve, and create. In addition to those cognitive skills, they are advancing their fine motor skills. The first two stations that have been introduced are LEGO Blocks and puzzles. Makerspace allows our students to struggle with tasks (Can you build a house that stands on the roof? Or try putting together an all-black and white puzzle!) That is embedded with fun, which leads to perseverance, and a greater sense of accomplishment in completion. As the year progresses, we look forward to adding additional activities to our rotation, especially designing and printing on our new 3D Printer (Kindergarten through 6^th grade students)!
