FOCUS STEM Camp

Yesterday was the STEM camp for middle school girls. Everyone seemed to enjoy learning about 3D printing and designing their own print.

Here they are hard at work:












The final products of 16 groups of 5 campers each. The resulting tiles will be made into a mosaic.

GMU STEM Camp

Working on an activity for a GMU STEM camp for middle school girls next week. This activity is designed to take an hour. The result is a tile. The plan is for each group to make a tile, and the set of tiles will form a camp mosaic. Here are the samples with a penny for scale.

Here are the instructions. (I believe you can view this to see it full size if it isn't readable inline.)

Looking forward to seeing what the campers come up with.
