Turning Everyday Objects Like Bananas into Touchpads!
6th grade student, Lucca Huling, has been experimenting with the school’s 
Makey Makey kit. Lucca made a visit to the library to share his latest creation to 1st and 2nd grade students. Lucca has turned everyday items into touch pads. He has made a drum machine out of toast, a piano out of bananas, and a cardboard book. He also used the Makey Makey kit to operate one of the 2 cardboard arcade machines for a class PBL/Engineering event. The students in Ms. Oliver’s and Ms. Kate’s class really enjoyed Lucca’s presentation and were inspired by his enthusiasm for technology and his willingness to share his knowledge with other students.
