We finished the green screen and I was thrilled with our work and excited for what is to come when the students fill the room in August. So that's it, ready to go, summer here we come!
Not. Yet.
Our principal loved the way the green wall changed the room so much he decided we had to paint the rest of the room. So five trips to Lowe's and three days later we had completely transformed our Makerspace into a creative outlet for the students.
It was truly a labor of love as none of us are professional painters. The addition of the colors bleeding into each other was accidental at first but our own Mr. Lee took the the time and attention to detail we needed to bring a bit of pizzazz to the room. The room feels more complete now.
Over the next month our janitorial crew will refinish the wood floor and do some touchups near the ceiling with a taller ladder and come August 3rd, when the JB Bear boot camp for incoming 6th graders is held we will have a magical place to introduce them to! Can't wait!
