We've started another school year! Seems like the summer just flew right on by. I'm excited to start the new school year, as we now have a brand new #Makerspace at Oakridge!
As you can see, my students were busy at work on the first day, checking out the new space, opening up boxes of Arduino kits, Go Pi Go kits, robotics parts, etc. We have even ordered a new 3D printer from PolyPrinter, and the kids and I can't wait to get this in the Makerspace and start creating things!
I even have many students who are interested in coding, starting from the basics of coding, and I'm having them use Codeacademy.com. Many of the students were interested in building a website from scratch, so I had them start that module, others, interested in programming Raspberry Pis or Arduino robotics are starting the Python module.
It is an exciting time to be an Oakridge Owl! Much more to follow as the year goes on and the kids build some fun, exciting, and creative new things!
