My Project

These materials will help my students explore their creativity by using different types of circuit materials. The students will get to explore and build in different ways. These materials are a great way to scaffold. We start with basic circuits and are quickly able to move into more complex circuits. These kits are a great way to learn about energy transfer and electricity. We also use these activities as ways to build on our team work skills. They are easy to use and store in the classroom. The students are easily able to organize these materials into the boxes because they are clearly labeled with part locations.
