Interactive Workshop
In the one-session design challenge, Drawing Machines!, young makers invent wiggling electrical creatures that draw fantastic geometric patterns. You and your students use engineering and design thinking to make a creature stand, its motor spin, and wiggle to make it move! Each student creates a working, take-home drawing machine.
