I love to share ideas and hope that this STEM blog helps others to consider an after school club. We thoroughly enjoy ourselves making mistakes, developing thinking skills and practical competences. We are greatly impressed and indebted to the STEM CLUBS network. Mr J.Geekie IEng MIIE

Hot air ..........................balloon, starting the project
Okay here we are again, great to be back. I want everyone to make a hot air balloon - a BIG one which we can launch from school. We will look at air mass and also - using applied mathematics, calculate the volume of the variable shape balloon. This will be particularly interesting. Also we will look at CAD and how we can generate a swept profile thus creating a 3d object as a drawing.
