Build, create, invent, and discover 28 awesome experiments and activities with Maker Lab! Today's book recommendation, 𝙈𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝙇𝙖𝙗: 28 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝘾𝙤𝙤𝙡 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙟𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙨 by Jack Challoner has 28 kid-safe projects and crafts that will get young inventors' wheels turning and make science pure fun! The book was created in association with the Smithsonian Institution and supports STEAM education initiatives among children. Each step-by-step activity is appropriate for kids ages 8–12, and ranked easy, medium, or hard, with an estimated time frame for completion. Requiring only household materials, young makers can build an exploding volcano, race balloon rocket cars, construct a lemon battery, make sticky slime, and more! Explaining science through photographs and facts that carefully detail the "why" and "how" of each experiment, the book uses real-world examples to provide context on how science works in our daily lives. #stem #stemeducation #steam #makerspaces

delve into the intricacies of Potential Learning Algorithm (PLA) puzzle, protoyping on one of my favorite Pokemon Eevee.. a captivating challenge that tests strategic thinking and adaptability. Discover how mastering this puzzle not only enhances problem-solving skills for children but also parallels real-world scenarios where adaptability is key to success. #Pokemon #ProblemSolving #Adaptability #Strategy #PLA #Eevee #prototype #prototypedesign #children #3dprinting #cad #caddesign #puzzles

Mission accomplished! Through the CIA Mission Possible: Makerspace Nation contest, three schools in the United States won $30,000 each to turn a classroom into a Makerspace for their students so that they can engage with science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM)! These teachers are going to bring their students' ideas from 2D to 3D and help prepare them for careers in #STEAM fields. You can read more about the winning teachers, and how they hope to inspire their students, at the link below 🔽 https://bit.ly/45PJ4lM #ShapingScience

Young Learners Putting Their Designs in Motion with Tinkercad Sim Lab Tinkercad. Sim Lab is a new feature that allows young learners to put their designs in motion. With Sim Lab, students can create 3D models that interact with each other and with the environment. They can experiment with different materials and forces to see how their designs behave. Sim Lab is a great way for students to learn about physics, engineering, and design. It's also a lot of fun! Students can create all sorts of amazing things with Sim Lab, from simple machines to complex robots. https://lnkd.in/grJdMKFE #design #Tinkercad #summercamp #SimLab #engineering
