Last weekend we had our first virtual weekend workshop. We worked on channeling our emotions through creative processes like #Making! We made intention sticks, personal permission slips and fear masks! This was a really fun time to get to know each other better #MakerCommunity

"Making creates a space for students to explore their ideas & creativity, increasing interest as they take command of their own learning. It's an opportunity to empower students & allow them to develop a sense of agency, that they play a part in shaping the world." - Christina
