 * 2018.2.27 * Anything robotics is always a hit. Burns has some robots and circuits kits - were they demonstrated when you were there. Using those and expanding on them would be interesting. Anything you liked as a kid - interesting girls is often more challenging. Maybe look into wearable circuits and electronics. Just a few preliminary thoughts. I'll be at Burns on Thursday, so we can work on virtual brainstorming.


 * 2018.2.23 * Zahn * Are you having the kids use iPads or Kindles for painting and drawing? Are any of the classroom teachers sing painting or drawing apps?

2018.2.22 * 2x/week


 * spatial visualization * Ms. Zahn has the bag of big LEGO blocks for this. Kids in 6-8 grade may already have access to the isometric dot paper on their iPads - Ms. Floyd put it on for me. They may be able to draw on the "paper" - we tried it and it works pretty well for some kids. A stylus helps. * 3D drawing – Access the isometric dot paper or here on your iPad. * Compare the LEGO stack with the isometric and footprint drawings. Draw these on your iPad. * Rotation – Look at the structure from a different side. Rotate the structure. Turn it over and view it from the bottom. Look down from the top. Draw the isometric diagrams for all SIX views. *  Create your own block structure. Draw the footprint and the isometric views for 2 different views of your structure. Swap with someone else and draw these views for this structure.

 * Cardboard Chair Project -   Inspiration for making a chair from a 4′ x 8′ piece of cardboard. * Cardboard Chairs – STEM Portfolio: By Daria Hoang -    For this project, we built chairs out of solely cardboard. We could make chairs with any size, shape, and design. The only restrictions/criteria were: Single-ply cardboard No use of fasteners or glue

 * modify and 3d print your own lego minifig


 * learn about computer science * try 5-6 of the activities and write a short description of each. * example graph coloring


 * suggest a project, write a description, develop it. Using an app on your iPad, make a rough sketch of your project design. Annotate the design drawing with text notes.


 * engineering design process * Kids need to learn to be systematic in their project work, especially in the early thinking and planning stage. * Here is an engineering design "organizer" - form that the kids can fill out to guide their thinking and work as they plan and develop their projects. * Ms. Galerno has a simpler version of a design process form for her kids for their maker space projects. I have requested a copy. * Here is the google forms version - would kids be more willing to fill t out online? ask...
