All,
I am doing a 15 minute presentation for about 110 kids ranging from 6 to 8th grade. The program is called Young Engineers and Scientists (YES) http://yesridgecrest.com/. This particular workshop is for boys only (they have one for girls during a different time). The kids come from as far as 150 miles away. There will be 3 ?Gadget guys? presenting topics related to the importance of math and science. The kids will build rockets, robots and make slime during the workshops. 2 years ago I talked about conducting flight test. This year I am talking about building the RV.
I am looking for some KEY messages that I can pass to the kids regarding the importance of math and science and how it relates to building an aircraft. If you have a few minutes and would like to share your 2 cents, I would be grateful and I am sure the kids will benefit.
BTW, I was going to bring my aircraft and use it as a display but was advice not to do that due to risks. Thanks for the help.
