The teacher will provide a pdf guide to taking things apart. Again, I highly encourage students to bring a retractable pen and a mechanical pencil with them to the workshop.

In this class, we will be taking apart retractable pens. Some pen designs are easier to take apart than others, so try to see if there is at least one part of the pen that can be unscrewed or pulled apart. Consider going on a pen hunt with your learners before class to find different kinds of pens that they can take apart during the workshop. If you have an unusual click pen in your house, please send it with your learner so we can make observations.

As retractable pens can have small parts, consider giving your learner a plastic box big enough to fit the pen in to store the pen's pieces discovered in the workshop. Some learners might want to be intentional about how they organize the pieces they find in order to assist with the reassembly process. (Other learners might go with a more chaotic storage system. That's fine too.) 

Depending on our class discussion, we might have time to look in on how mechanical pencils differ from retractable pens. Try to find a mechanical pencil where the top screws off and you can see the part that advances the lead.

Younger learners (and learners who have fine motor difficulties) might benefit from an adult helper. Additionally, ages for all of my classes are largely a suggestion. If your learner is interested in what we're doing in this course, I'd love to get to know them. [If you have a serious engineering minded kid eager to go deeper consider signing them up for YES, an Engineering Club for Kids which is an on-going, discussion-oriented course.]

This class has a firm maximum at 8 learners in order to give every learner a chance to participate in our discussion and show off their discoveries. Siblings are always welcome to share computers; all learners attending the class need to be enrolled.
