TinkerLab, Reverse Engineering, STEM Saturday...

So, this happened...

                                                                                 

Old computers, laptops, and various electronics, screwdrivers, curious kids, a couple helpful parents, and lots of fun!

Hooray for Audiobooks!

What have I been up to? Well, for starters...reading listening to many great audiobooks. I'm in the car 1-1 1/2 hours 5 days a week. That can be a lot juvenile fiction listened to. Here's some faves for upper elementary to middle grades that will make it onto my next "Staff Picks" list, check 'em out:
