Makerspace @ Your MHS Library

What do you have when you add 
AP Biology Project 
+ AP students 
+ Library space
+ Old books discarded from the library 
+ crafting supplies 
+ fresh leaves and flowers?  

elements for a great Makerspace


On April 25th MHS Library hosted a day and resources for AP Biology students inviting them to work on their collecting species project during class, lunch and until 5pm. On hand were discarded, large volume reference books for pressing leaves and flowers while the librarian provided assorted craft resources to create their notebooks and discussed with students some of the notebook options to consider. Mrs. Edney created a website with links as a starting point for online sites to identify and research the student's collections. Fresh leaves and flowers were collected to assist with those without vehicles or not yet involved with the project.

It was so incredible to be a part of this endeavor.
