The girls at Bohannon Middle School have been exploring electrical engineering. For Halloween they drew schematic diagrams to solder resistors, transistors, LEDs and a speaker to make a spooky, talking jack-o'-lantern.

Two environmental engineers visited and taught the girls about the benefits of planting and landscaping with native plants. The girls created green-themed greeting cards inspired by California native flora and fauna. 

Field trips to Chabot Space and Science Center and Google are coming up.
