In this hands-on workshop series, you’ll open up old electronics to see what’s inside, explore how motherboards, microcontrollers, and circuits really work, and then start designing your own device using Arduino, Micro:bit, or Circuit Playground boards. Learn to code at your own pace, starting with block coding and earning badges as you go! Level up to JavaScript and C++ as your skills grow. Whether you’re lighting LEDs, making sensors react, or bringing wild ideas to life, Maker Mondays are all about discovery, invention, and FUN! Attire: Clothes that can get dirty, closed-toe shoes. Hair ties --hair should be pulled back whe we use electric drills/screw drivers and other equipment. Please note: Micro:bit kits are provided for class use and stay at Gizmo unless parents opt to purchase the take-home materials kit--a micro:bit, USB cord and instructions for a fee of $20.
