Mundelein High School’s Science Department will host an evening of activities all related to STEAM [science, technology, engineering, the arts and math] Monday, October 29, from 6 to 8 p.m. K-8 students and community members of all ages are invited to attend.
Some of the activities scheduled for the evening include an egg drop challenge – kids will design and build a device intended to prevent an egg from breaking when dropped from the second floor in the atrium of the C wing. The drops will occur every 15 minutes for public observation. Nanotechnology and Research students will demonstrate how to use the Scanning Electron Microscope, the 3D Optical Profiler, and run some hands on activities with participants in C130. Participants will have the choice of a variety of hands on experiences such as making slime and bouncy balls at stations in C130. Families will be able to hold the large snakes in C107. Families will be guided through a basic coding experience in the Business Incubator room, C102. They will view projects done by the members of the Byte Club in C104. Participants will be able to view the heavens using a reflecting telescope. There will be treats in the hospitality room, C101.
