Measurable Outcome(s)
Comments from hosting librarians: Megan brought interesting materials including colored library tape we donated! At Heritage event, all boys who enjoyed it and built impressive structures. Nancy was awesome in explaining the project and how to start. She and her daughter Angelise helped everyone out and a girl who wants to be an engineer won the distance contest. Awesome program! Kids were busy building for 1st hour, modifying for another 20 minutes to half hour and testing out for the last time. Some amazing creations were made.
