In this episode, we interview Emily Thomas, a technology integration analyst from Northeast Metro Intermediate School District 916 about her work in her school district with making inclusive makerspaces. She emphasizes creating differentiated instructional materials that cater to various learning needs, from simple step-by-step instructions with images to advanced challenges. Each makerspace kit provides several key, differentiated supports that teachers can use to ensure all the students in their classroom find success with the project. She also discusses how she created and plans these kits and manages them in her current role. By combining supports, differentiation, hands-on learning, and STEAM, Emily's inclusive makerspace initiative has ensured that all students are engaged and learning.
