This past Wednesday, we gathered together as recipients of the UNCG T4 Grant at East High School. The Media Coordinators of our 3 schools; KMS, SEMS and EHS collaborated to get us together to look at where we are individually and together.
It was wonderful! We toured Mary's (EHS) Makerspace and heard how their Club meets once a week to work on things like their 3D printer which they bought as a kit, use the Makey-Makey, and try out fabric circuits. We've all agreed to meet on Wednesday, 10/21 at SEMS to tour theirs and continue our discussion. Primary on our list? October funds, the UNCG class, how to get teachers & curriculum into the Makerspace.. Too, our Media Coordinators have been directed to catalog our Makerspace Inventory.

Charlotte Maker Faire! 10/10
Many thanks to Mike, Matt & Christine for allowing us to tag along to the Charlotte Maker Faire on a very rainy dreary Saturday. We learned so much! We (Juli (EHS), Karie (SEMS) and I) were very impressed and overwhelmed with all the making. Here are photos!
