Science Workshop at Dun Laoghaire Library


In November our class was lucky enough to be invited to an exciting science workshop in the new Dun laoghaire library. We learned all about 'makey makey' boards which are a really cool way of connecting electrical circuits. We used our makey makey boards to make a piano out of fruits and a game controller out of play dough. The two teachers were phd students from Trinity college and they were both really smart!
