Masters of Our Own Creativity by Mrs. Brown

We have made some of the greatest inventions this quarter. Through a design process that included teamwork, building, and programming, we learned by creating. We presented our projects as a class and hope that you will take the time to enjoy them too. Here are short clips of our creations:

Going Above and Beyond By: Ella

In Technology this week, my group is doing the Hummingbird kit. If you have ever seen the Hummingbird kit, you will notice that the programming portion looks terribly hard. Our group is making a house out of cardboard and programming certain parts such as the lamps with the LEDs, a fan with the sensors, and more creative stuff.  My group and I have worked very hard to accomplish this rotation. All of the wiring having to do with programming is tough but our group makes it look easy. We have worked so hard and our work has really payed off! 

Presentation Day, Round One

I am so proud of all of our innovators! We had a great first round of presentations. The creativity was limitless. From a Life Hacks website for kids to a Lego robotics amusement park to being the first to work with the Little Bits Wireless Boost pack, we saw dynamic design teams at work. For a look at our creations firsthand, we invite you to check out our short videos highlighting our projects:
