Maker Mondays: Take Apart and Invent! (Ages 10+)

This course allows for rolling registration. If the class sessions have already begun and you want to join, please call Gizmo at 208-929-4029. Description: Welcome to Gizmo's Maker Mondays—where curiosity sparks creativity! 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 Micro:bit and 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++ for Arduino 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! New experiences and extensions from prior sessions every two weeks! In April we will be focusing on Coding with Whale Bots & Exploring Circuit Playground Express to code your own projects! Attire: Clothes that can get dirty, closed-toe shoes. Hair ties --hair should be pulled back when we use electric drills/screw drivers and other equipment. Age: 10+
