I spent the day at South Henry Junior Senior High School and the evening at the Elementary School STEM night. I saw 4 classes during the day. Two of the classes experimented with the rubberband cars. We also had a 3D printing demonstration going on that they checked out. Several people in one class wanted to see how to get an image and 3D print it. A few people cut some stickers on the Cricuts. In two of the classes, most of the students created something with the cardboard and craft materials.
Two of the teachers and I found the room that had 2 dormant 3D printers and a Dremel laser cutter. We got one printer working, the other had an extruder error.
For the STEM night, I laser cut some templates of their mascot & logo. They are the Titans, so a Titan and a T. The titan was difficult to work with and i ended up cutting the arms off at the bicep.
The maker station was for kids to trace whichever they wanted onto paper, cardstock or cardboard, then cut it out and bling it out. Kids tried out tools and adults helped as needed.
