Hi, My name is Anne Rhodes and I am a teen librarian in Mansfield, OH. The theme of the Summer Library Program (SLP) for 2014 is "Spark a Reaction"@ Your Library. It is very Science oriented and I am hoping to do a program where tweens and teens can learn about some science concepts. I am envisioning some short presentations and some hands on things, (soldering, squishy circuits, that cool vacuum thing that I saw at Akron Public library. I have some info about making a simple motor and something like that might be good too. The program would probably last 60 to 90 mins. Someone at the Akron Maker Faire told me about your "young aristotle" program and I'm probably looking for a mini version of that.
What I am looking for is someone or two who would be willing to come here one night or even several different nights and do something like this. We can pay but do not have a huge budget. The SLP runs from the beginning of June thru the end of July. If you know anyone who might want to do this, can you please put them in touch with me? Just FYI: The summer library program is a big thing all over Ohio and anyone who developed some type of tween/teen friendly program could probably stay busy all summer presenting it at libraries. Even if you can't come here, this would be a good opportunity for someone who has the time and inclination. I enjoyed your booth at the mini maker faire. I wish I lived closer to Akron. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, anne rhodes, teen librarian mrcpl.org 419-524-3254 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] https://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
