We finally put a blog post up about it with info on what we used and did :) mosandboo.com/kuracon-2018-t…
Today we had to apply what we have learned about circuits in previous sessions to make Xmas decorations, lightsabers & security boxes #muchfun
One of our mums who is passionate about food is sharing an experiment she found in @medickinson’s awesome kitchen science book that explores what Acids & Bases are & how PH indicators work #kapai
New on the blog:
Making in the classroom - purpose and resources

One of our parents teaching us how to make classic games using HTML, CSS & JS @TaupakiSchool
#makerednz
We also built a memory game using a breadboard and Arduino - lots of fun and nice intro into using software and hardware #markerednz

This circuit reacts to the amount of light input and changes the volume of the noise omitted from the buzzer

This circuit uses an IC (555 timer) to create a blinking light.
Challenge: change the resistor values and see what happens to the speed of the LED blinks
It was a circuit building kinda day: Basic circuits, light dependent circuits, blinking LEDs with 555 timers, light sensors controlling noise volume circuits and memory games built with breadboards & Arduinos #hardfun #makerednz
It was a whole lot of messy maker fun in today’s science session making edible, fluffy & thermochromic slime #makerednz

There is a whole lot of mad science going on in our house tonight #prototyping #experiments
From simple circuits, to a table top arcade machine, we had lots of fun @TaupakiSchool Digi-Tech expo sharing our making & learning journey with our community
Is it a liquid or a solid?

Three challenges:
1. Build your driving base
2. Program it to go forward & back & then in a square shape
3. Add to your build to enable your robot to pick an object up

The mums getting amongst it today learning how to make games with @scratch #makerednz

Exploring what shapes give us the most height & stability - who can build the tallest tower? #makerednz
