Base 10 National Stem Day 2024:

 

For National STEM Day (8th November), we took part in an exciting workshop called Space and Time, led by Inventors & Makers. During the workshop, we learned about the role of engineers, focusing on the famous figures Neil Armstrong and Katherine Johnson, who played key roles in the Apollo 11 mission to the moon. We explored the Apollo 11 lunar module and investigated how forces like gravity, thrust, and exhaust impacted its journey. Afterward, we had the chance to create circuits and experiment with vibrations, working to make our rover imitation move in a straight line and travel faster. It was a hands-on way to explore engineering and space exploration!
