Popis: Academic language is an important focus area in middle school. However, academic writing in science classes is challenging for middle school students. Maker activities can contribute to students’ academic language development through artifact creation with tangible resources (Own, 2018). This makerspace and academic writing project, codesigned by a science teacher and a technology integration specialist, invited middle school science students to work on academic writing through maker activities.
