Learning Festival 1: DC Jail and Youth Services Center

Our first learning festival was at the Washington DC Jail and YSC hosted by Judge Zia Faruqui (thank you for creating this incredible opportunity and sharing your work with us, and the community!)

Rebecca and Amulya started the morning hanging out with adult high school students at the DC Department of corrections, and joined the rest of the team at the YSC with students age 11-19.

​

Across the two locations, we taught lessons about 3D printing, extracting DNA from strawberries, the science of concrete, and coding with Scratch, and met over 50 teenagers and students.
