STEM on the MOVE: Exploring Simple Machines Get ready to build, lift, and discover! In this fun, hands-on workshop, kids will explore simple machines like levers, pulleys, wheels, and ramps. Through playful activities and teamwork, they’ll learn how these clever tools help us move things more easily and solve everyday problems. Whether they’re lifting a load with a pulley or racing marbles down a ramp, students will use their creativity and curiosity to become young engineers in motion. This workshop is designed to spark excitement, build confidence, and make science feel like play. Co-sponsored by: MOVE 3320 Sandy Plains Road, Marietta, Georgia, United States, 30066
