Mrs. Ham’s Classroom Edit display name

https://www.donorschoose.org/classroom/5491024 Customize URL

As an educator I want to foster problem solving in my classroom. I work on real-life word problems and I feel that the Circuit Builder will help reinforce this on a more independent level. Incorporating the Circuit Builder in a center to help foster problem solving, team work, cooperation, science, creativity, and fun will ensure that students are engaged during independent time. Science and math are two subjects that I have a deep passion for. The Circuit Maker uses electronic blocks that snap onto clear plastic grids to build different circuits. This will help the students better understand open and closed circuits as well as the many other components of electricity. All the while it will also help build problem solving skills in math. Who knows, I may even bring out the engineer in some on my students. So many possibilities.
