Eighth grade tech clubs learned how open and closed circuits work by building and designing their own circuits.  Using a Squishy Circuits kit, students connected their battery power pack to a special homemade conductive playdoh that has extra salt added to the recipe.  Students chose colored LED lights, sensors, buzzers and motors to complete the circuit.  Their one of a kind creations were quite creative.  The students have been challenged to create an invention with their Squishy Circuits for the next tech club!

Lunch & Learns will be offered every two weeks on Wednesdays in the Think Lab.  Everyone is invited to attend. This week we learned some Google Tips & Tricks! Click on the graphic below to see the presentation.

Book club met on Friday to start the book Fish by L. S. Matthews.  The book highlights a family’s struggle as they are forced to leave their homeland. Students spent time discussing the topic of modern refugees and the challenges they face.
