Workshop 1: The Bookmark Challenge
Ready to build an awesome project? In this workshop, you will design a custom bookmark from a cereal box. First, you will draw precise parallel lines that never cross. Next, you will practice cutting straight edges and folding thick cardboard cleanly. Geometry will come alive as you explore the perfect symmetry of squares! You will even use math formulas to find the perimeter and area of your design, just like a real engineer.
Workshop 2: Magic with Circles
Get ready to spin into a brand-new shape! In this project, you will discover the magic of the circle. Circles do not have straight sides or sharp corners. Instead, their curved edges stay the exact same distance from the center. You will use rulers to measure the diameter straight across. Then, you will track the circumference all the way around. Math is not just numbers on a page. It is a toolkit to build the world!

Making the cubic decimeter is all about the metric system. Designing a cube is easy but designing it with graph paper will teach you so much more.
The big thing you will learn is how to transfer your design. That's how you become an architect.

The Tetrahedron
This unit is all about engineering. You will learn how to draw an equilateral triangle, angles, design and in the end make a beautiful tetrahedron. One of the great tools you will learn how to use is the compass.

The catapult is a lot of fun to make. You will learn much more about making a plan, cutting material, assembling material and
experimenting.

The cubic decimeter is the metric system's anchor. You will have fun planning, measuring, cutting, and assembling a cube. After finish it, you will have good understanding of the metric system.
