Makerspace Club - Barbara Bush Middle

Makerspace is a place where students can develop their creative thinking skills in a variety of mediums. We explore electronics and build items with circuits, we design and build robots and play games with them, we design and print on our 3-D printer. We have a sewing corner where students can learn some of those skills, and we have power tools that students can use under proper supervision. However, we also have crafting materials for students who want to create a hand-made gift for a loved one.

Program Recognitions

Our students won first place at the first CFBISD Middle School Design competition. One student built his own game with materials in the club while another student created a soda machine.

One of our students started a Virtual Coding Club this year. The students collaborate and share coding projects on Scratch, and demonstrate other platforms they use at home for more advanced coding. The students are working in teams to create their own apps.
