We celebrated #PiDay (3.14) by making an electronic trundle wheel! To get a circumference of 1m, divide it by pi to get the required diameter (31.8cm roughly). We used a @Makedo Roto-Ring to make the wheel rotate and added conductive materials connected to a @makeymakey. #STEM

Two days… I went from a pile of cardboard to this. I haven’t had this much fun in a while. Shoutout to @Makedo and #chompsaw for helping me bring my vision yo life. The @SVViperPride cast brought the house down once again!!! #engineer @DVUSD

Tip #3 in last week’s timely @Makedo newsletter was about bending curves in cardboard! It’s a “small” tip that builds an important foundational skill for this challenge. Students are building the perimeter of the heart first and discovering that creating curves takes more effort.

Our new STEM club at St Malachy’s Catholic Primary School kicked off with @Sphero indi! The pupils first experimented with the coloured tiles to learn what command each colour represents. Then, they used @Makedo and @NurcsToy construction tools to create fun elements. #STEM
