Bring out your students’ creative side with this #STEAM activity I created with @scifri! Observe and explore the geometry and engineering that makes pop-up cards POP. Adaptable to remote/hybrid. #mathart #iteachmath #MTBoS #SciFriPop

Use geometry to make and measure extraordinary paper pop-up creations using two simple mechanisms—the v-fold and the box layer.

Engineering students pitched their light-up wearable inventions during class today. To make the prototypes, they used conductive thread to sew circuits and connect components -- lots of patience and grit required! #WeAreCountryDay @CountryDay

Sewing in engineering class? Absolutely! Students are inventing wearable devices that use LEDs and light sensors in unique and useful ways. Stay tuned to see what can be created with conductive thread, electronic components, fabric, and creativity! @CountryDay #WeAreCountryDay

Engineering students learned about sound: frequency, wavelength, harmonics, noise, & sine curves. They created the equation for each note in a song & programmed notes into Mathematica to play the song. Thanks to Mr. Tracey-Miller for help with chords! @CountryDay #WeAreCountryDay
