Hands-on learning,
made to keep.

“FutureMakers brings meaningful, hands-on STEAM learning to the classroom. The challenges they produce allow students to create and iterate in many different ways. They are not a “one size fits all” but allow students to make on their own terms. The support they provide teachers gives them the confidence to get messy and take risks with their students.”

“FutureMakers has made the concept of hand-on STEAM education fun and exciting for the children of DC. The kits sparked joy and were reusable so children could explore their own interpretations of the engineered structures. The pre-made kits were easy to distribute and helped DCPL create fun and safe programs this summer.”

“We have chosen FutureMakers to support our mission of inspiring and preparing K-12 students for STEM education and careers. We use Sparks in K - 2 classrooms to ignite a passion for critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration. We have witnessed the power of collaborative teamwork as our students tackle real-world problems and see themselves as innovators.”

"We are consistently impressed with the degree of student engagement and excitement we have seen in our virtual co-curricular clubs since implementing the FutureMakers Sparks program. The playful, project-based engineering approach of FutureMakers Sparks invites imagination and innovation.”

“FutureMakers has been instrumental in providing high-quality STEAM learning opportunities for students in our Chinese Immersion, French Immersion, and Spanish Immersion programs. The materials and activities provide hands-on learning and exploration and can be directed by teachers in all of our Immersion languages.”

“Students are craving engagement. With Sparks, they are experiencing now what they can’t experience in the regular school year. The resources and slides had great real-world connections to share with students.”

“FutureMakers has been an integral partner with Baltimore County Public Library throughout the years. They have empowered our staff to reach broader audiences with STEM programming through their training, programming, and kits. FutureMakers worked with us to develop ways to use their kits to train teens to be mentors to younger youth in a fun, educational, and engaging way!”

“FutureMakers’ Sparks are valuable tools that bolster STEM learning opportunities with equitable hands-on experiences. They are uncomplicated and provide a straightforward way to generate inquisitive exploration and creative problem-solving while fostering a deeper understanding of how things work.”

“Sparks are perfect for our summer camp programs. The kits, resources, and materials are all user-friendly, easy to store, fun to teach, and, most importantly, highly engaging for youth. We’ve used Sparks for our annual city-wide virtual Spring Break program, where youth receive kits at home and Zoom in with their FutureMakers coach!”
