BPS Makers: Fostering Equity in Making
Join BPS Makers, Boston Public Schools’ maker group, to design with us and learn more about our maker work! Create cardboard characters inspired by literary characters (or make your own) or collaborate with others on our Rube Goldberg Machine, a complex contraption in which a series of devices are connected to produce a domino effect in which one device triggers the next device.
Rube Goldberg Machine
A Rube Goldberg Machine is a complex contraption in which a series of devices are connected to produce a domino effect in which one device triggers the next device. Use found objects like buttons, pins, wheels, plastic, and more to set objects in motion!
Cardboard Puppets
Cardboard puppets are made out of cardboard, tape, and glue. They can move using various puppetry techniques and decorated using markers, textiles, buttons, brass fasteners, and other objects.
