Makey Makey
Sessions: Monday 6D
Have you ever played a piano by using only bananas? If not, then join me as we look into the world of Makey Makey. You ask, “What is a Makey Makey?” A Makey Makey is a circuit board that encourages students to find creative ways to interact with computers by using everyday objects to replace keyboards and mouse on computers. In this session, you will learn how to make a banana piano and other fun activities that you can bring back to your classroom to use.
