Come and join us as we explore the natural world with a $1 microscope. Magnify your amazing findings by designing and creating paper circuits to make what you have discovered come to light. All PreK-8 teachers will have something that they can use right away! A few of the great takeaways from this workshop will be a class set of $1 microscopes and circuit supplies (templates, batteries, copper tape and LED lights) to help students light up their observations.

This workshop is part of the STEMAZing Workshop Series. The STEMAZing Project’s philosophy on teacher professional development is simple: It must be hands-on and engaging – putting the educators in the seat of the students to experience STEM lessons firsthand. It must provide the educators with the equipment and supplies they need to implement the lessons and activities in their classrooms the next day if they choose. It must be facilitated by master educators who have themselves been in the classroom.
