Welcome Makers and Hackers!
Pre-engineering class built egg carriers that took an egg from one building to another! We strung up a steel cable from 8th grade building to 7th grade building. The kids had to build their carrier from sheet metal, duct tape, wire, motors, batteries, and switches. They could use the 3D printer to make what ever they needed.
The event was a huge success and we hit the Marin IJ!…. article and photos here…
We hosted a workshop for over 200 girls on Jan 22 6:30 PM at White Hill School. These future engineers listened to professionals from different disciplines about women in engineering. They participated in creating a circuit from conductive thread, a battery and an LED. More info about this event…
