Grade School

The theme of our booth will be Bridging Biology and Engineering to turn DNA into Medicine. We plan to have 2 stations within our booth; the 1st will be geared toward elementary school age children and the 2nd toward middle school/high school aged children.

Hands on science and engineering activities to engage your brain and fun!

At our booth builders of all ages will design and create something that might fly or roll. After designing, they will test the prototype on a wind machine and redesign as needed.

We will have Lego Mindstorms Robots that families can learn how to program on our laptops. We will also have information regarding our Clubhouse , programming workshops, and events that we sponsor (for example, the San Diego County Fair's Robotics competitions.)

We will set up a display of our alternative garden systems (four vegetable towers ) as well as demonstrate our plan to host a community farmer's Market 1-2 times per month. There is also another student who will set up a video / prototype model of a "soccer shoe cooling device." We would like to request a 10x20 space if possible.

Our booth will be an interactive installation. A "work" area in the first tent will teach the public about how fossil fuels are speeding up the natural cycle of global warming. Public will create a paper model molecule of CO2 from a orange tissue paper with a dinosaur print. This will be brought into the second tent, where they add it to our atmosphere model. The second tent will have canvas added to the corners to create a circular chamber (rather than square). The walls will be covered with our studies of natural migrations & cycles.
