Combine Technology and Art with Binary Bracelets and Buttons!

Help me give my students fun art materials including bracelets and button makers to bring art into technology.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brodfuehrer's classroom raised $479

My Project

Imagine that students can show their technology skills through art!

Students will be able to bring their art on the computer to life with a button and code their initials by making binary bracelets.

We are so excited to bring coding to life. Using two colored beads and spacers, students will place them in the correct order on a pipe cleaner to code their initials to make a binary bracelet. They will be able to collect and organize their materials with the bead trays and storage containers.

We are also requesting a button-making machine. Using a button machine students will be able to print their designs made on a computer onto buttons they can proudly wear!
