April 1st, 2023 We staffed a booth at Maker Faire Los Angeles. We brought some of our favorite models, activities and giveaways and we were also able to bring the brand new Hat Tile or Mono Tile newly discovered by an amateur mathematician.
Intern Ella Basken made the trip and did an outstanding job representing with the team. Read Ella’s after event reflection here. We got to hang out with Dale Dougherty, founder of Maker ED, and Lamar Queen, founder of Music Notes who were performing.
We use a maker approach when we find a new idea, learning about materials, making techniques, and interacting with other learners to come up with something both creative and practical, and mathematical. There are so many great connections we can make!
