Makerspace in the Media Center

We had a good time at the Makerspace Activity, exploring creativity in the Oak Valley Media Center! With Dash Robots, we coded a pathway and also gave directions to play a song on a xylophone:

The Ozobots followed our color codes, creating spins and turns with turbo action, too!

Students did an amazing job of building complex (and tall) structures with simple Keva Planks:

And it's always relaxing and fun to make a craft together!
