First graders packed their suitcases for a trip today in the Light Lab. They had to arrange all their items to maximize the 10 x 10 grid space. Pants took up 4 spaces, shoes 3, shirts 2, etc. #mathincontext #makered #steamkids @friendscentral @briebdaley
We love hearing our young makers gasp with surprise and laugh in delight seeing robotic fish jumping out of ponds and wizards waving magic wands. So much inspiration happening during the Fifth Grade Robot Fair! #MakerEd @briebdaley @birdbraintech @microbit_edu @friendscentral
Third graders started their waterwheel designs this week. Eventually we will connect them to generators and see if we can produce enough electricity to light an LED. @friendscentral @briebdaley #FallProject #Water #MakerEd #STEAM
