Back in May, Maker Crew members Zsofia & Greta Varga designed letter tiles @CountryDay language specialists to use with students. We laser cut some at school and some at UC's Ground Floor Makerspace over the summer. Makers helping little learners! #WeAreCountryDay

After building fettuccine structures, watching them fail, and learning some basics of structural engineering, @CountryDay Engineering students created and tested new fettuccine structures that met supply & design constraints. Engineering design process in action! #WeAreCountryDay

Busy sticker printing day in the @CountryDay Makerspace! Sophomore Evelyn designed signage, including a menu & updated logo, for the Birdfeeder cart. Ms. DiMatteo's 8th grade English classes designed stickers to promote the books they read this summer. Fantastic! #WeAreCountryDay

Engineering students built structures out of fettuccine and tape to hold packs of cardstock. They had limited supplies and several design constraints. Lots of ah-ha moments during testing with learnings to apply to the second designs next week! @CountryDay #WeAreCountryDay

Lilly is a sophomore on our golf team -- check out her CS2 final project -- a mini-golf hole! Of course, the video didn't catch one of the many putts she made. This project was a fan-favorite! 🏌️♀️⛳️ @CountryDay #WeAreCountryDay @jmeb96

We’re excited that Pathways to Invention, award-winning documentary supported by @LemelsonMIT and the School of Engineering, premieres on PBS in May. It follows twelve inventors as they develop technological solutions to problems in their communities. https://t.co/WG1GXMzdcH

A @CountryDay junior, Kevin, used the Makerspace to create almost-life-size cardboard cutouts of a few friends for a project in his video production class. Love the creativity -- can't wait to see the final video! #WeAreCountryDay

Computer Science 2 students trained an AI model to recognize handwritten numbers, tested each other's models, and shared learnings. After training their model, the class learned how a basic neural network's nodes and layers lead to "learning." #WeAreCountryDay @CountryDay

Before spring break: Upper School engineering students, who were learning about additive manufacturing, helped third graders design shapes in Tinkercad for 3D printing. Impressive results! @CountryDay #WeAreCountryDay
