Getting Started with FlipGrid
Throughout the course, we will use FlipGrid as a way to get to know one another, share ideas, and reflect on our work. To begin, please use FlipGrid to answer the prompt below.
Prompt: Think about a memorable making experience you’ve had in the past. This could be anything—a cooking experience, a building project, something you made at school or at work. What are the particular activities or feelings that make this memory stand out?

STEAM ACTIVITY #1: Design Hunt
STEAM ACTIVITY #1: Design Hunt
Our first activity is a Design Hunt. Before we do some Making of our own, we will explore the systems at play in everyday objects. This activity comes from Project Zero, and helps students start to understand how different parts of an object work together, and how remixing different parts can help us to make something new.
