Session description

Learn the basics of soldering: What it is, why it is useful in the classroom and how to get started with students. This is for beginners who no idea how to best get a project like this started.

Purpose & objective

I want to make educators aware of these soldering kits I designed to teach beginning soldering to their students. There are no other kits on the market that are this user friendly for kids, which is why I designed them to begin with!!

Outline

I will have posters of my 3rd-5th grade students soldering. I will have a soldering iron at my booth and samples of the kits to show educators what they look like and they can decide what kit they could use for their students. They really can be used by students from3rd-12th grade since many students have never soldered before and need to start out simple.
