STEM Explorers (Gr. 1&2) - ZomeTool In-Person
In this hands-on, active program, children in grades 1 & 2 will explore the different aspects of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). This program is accessible to a variety of ability levels, with assistance provided so all children can be successful!
This month we will be exploring the ZomeTool.
So what is the Zometool? Atomic Tinkertoy? Lego of the Future? Molecular modeling kit on steroids?
All of the above, and more! Quantum mathematician Micho Durdevich calls the Zometool a physical embodiment of quantum math: "It's math you can feel." If you think you're "bad at math," think again: this elegant tool makes it beautiful, simple and fun. The Zometool unites the cubic structure of crystals with the 5-fold symmetries of life. This beautiful marriage encompasses Fibonacci numbers, fractals, the Divine Proportion, sacred geometry, R. Buckminster Fuller's synergetics, projections from up to 61 dimensions, and so much more. Quantum math is the mother of all maths and queen of the sciences. The Zometool turns quantum math into child's play!
