Cardboard is an incredibly versatile building material that invites creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on exploration. In this workshop, you’ll dive into tools, techniques, and classroom-friendly strategies for helping students safely use cardboard as part of the engineering design process. Discover how simple materials can inspire big ideas and deepen students’ understanding of engineering concepts.
Coding doesn’t require secret languages or complex symbols—it can be explored through simple, intuitive tools like Scratch and OctoStudio. In this session, we’ll investigate how devices and hands-on materials can interact in creative ways to help us tell our stories.

What is surface tension? How might we utilize this force to do interesting things?
Have you ever seen an insect “walking” on water? How does that work? What other mysteries does water hold? This Playshop will have us experimenting with water and surface tension. You will be amazed at what you might discover.
Looking for an innovative way to implement CA Computer Science Standards? The BBC Micro:bit is a pocket-sized, programmable device that helps learners understand how hardware and software work together. In this workshop, you’ll explore how students can tinker, code, and create with the Micro:bit while engaging deeply with CA CSS. Discover classroom-ready ideas that blend creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on computing.
How does a solar cell create electricity?
We know that solar power can lower our power bills, but can it do anything else? What if we could build some mechanical devices that run on solar power? Let’s try! Come play with solar power, build, tinker, and create, all with the power of the sun.
