- 23. January 25, 2015 To the parents/guardians of: Thordur Bjornsson Nikita Dospehoff Brady Hopkins Colby Newberry Matthew Linakis Our MakerSpace program has been going very well this semester. We routinely have between 50-65 students who attend each Monday. Our students have been learning to code using the code.org website, use tinkercad.com to print items on our MakerBot 3D printer, use a Makey Makey to make inventions based on conductivity, create robots with the Lego Mindstorm sets and learn to create projects using the Raspberry Pi. This semester we are going to have a MakerFaire on Monday, May 18 from 4:00 to 6:00PM. Our Makers have come up with a project that they would like to produce for our MakerFaire. Some of the items we have already, but others we will need for your child’s project. I have listed the project your child would like to do on the back of this form along with a list of resources needed for that project. Any help you could give, would be appreciated. Be sure to place the MakerFaire on your calendars. Thank you, Sundi Pierce MakerFaire Planning • E-mails • MAKE • Instructables • Ordered Badges/Goodie Bags for Students • Adafruit • Volunteers • Cake/Drinks • Invitations • Guest Speakers • Media http://makerfaire.com/global/school/
