MECHANICS & THE ART OF TINKERING ~ this group is closed ~
Have you ever heard of 'jerry rigging' something? It means building, fixing, or making something quickly using whatever loose parts or items may be close by. (It might look messy, but it is getting the job done.) Each week we'll be messing about, learning how things work through experimentation, disassembling/reassembling, digging into a bit of research learn, and plenty of hands on tinkering. Let's figure out how certain things 'tick' in ways people don't do much anymore .... from radios to engines to toasters, we're sure to have fun getting our hands dirty and learning a ton. A visit to The Bicycle Collective is also part of the plan! Instructor: Grey Bakken

In the fall, we will primarily be outside on the north courtyard. Our school wide Cell Phone Policy is still part of our day and students should NOT have their phones out even during this time of day. Please text Kathleen if you need your child ready to leave immediately, otherwise they will see you pull up. Parents are always welcome to come inside to visit if they choose to.
