Character education, a Growth Mindset focusing on the community in your classroom or media center, takes a great deal of engagement and problem-solving if we want to help students better understand how to get along with others and create a supporting environment. Teachers often want great book titles that focus on community building. Students need lots of examples of characters building a community. Makerspace task cards/ STEM challenges are perfect for community building, critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration while engaging students in examples of getting along with others.

This free Makerspace Story Station focusing on community accompanies the book The First Day Jitters. (found on Amazon- this is an affiliate link.) Enjoy!
