After a long beginning year, the GearHeads decided to take on a huge project and started to plan out their very own pedal cars. We worked together as a team, and included all of our ideas. Then we came up with a plan, took apart bikes, and after that a prototype. Now its time to get to work on building these cars!
In GearHeads one of the biggest things we do is use what we have, that means taking things apart and making them into something new. As well as fixing chrome books and other things like circuits, and learning how to solder.
If you don't know what LittleBits are then you are missing out. LittleBits are kits that teach kids how to make circuits and how they work. In GearHeads sometime we do challenges with these, that helps us learn about inventing and robotics.
Nathan is our coding leader, he is very good at what he does. In GearHeads you have the opportunity to learn how to code in many different ways. This also correlates with building robots and giving them directions or a "brain".
Last but not least is filming. We use WeVideo and other programs to teach the kids how to film and edit the videos they make.
Sometimes we even do fun events at other schools!
