Just a little soldering practice



It's awesome time in the STEAM Lab when students tackle projects that stretch their skills. It's even better when it's something that stretches a teacher's skills as well. Best ever? When we make something work again. Today, a student taught another student and Ms. Capwell how to solder. We repaired a string of LED Christmas lights - something that would have been thrown away otherwise. However, after snipping the wires, cleaning up and re-soldering the connections and putting it all back together again, we once again had glowy, LED goodness.
