FX Studio Makers - An Adventure in After School Clubs!

This semester, to give students a little more time to build their skills and familiarity in our Foxview makerspace, we began an after school club called "FX Studio Makers". Over five weeks, we have rotated the students through five different stations, giving them an hour to complete an activity or challenge related to their station. The stations we had included:

 Using the Makey Makey to play Tetris with our feet:

Programming the Sphero robot to complete a maze:

Learning to Code Through the Game of Pong on the Kano Kits:

Building electronic prototypes with the littleBits:

Constructing models and representations with Megablocks:

It has been amazing to see the students grow in their ability to collaborate with one another and really explore and test things out. We are thankful for the support and assistance of Mr. Valentine, a 6th grade teacher, who was excited to get involved when we first proposed the idea.

This club will run through the end of November, and start up again in February with a new group of students!
