Explore simple circuits by starting with a circuit craft project then migrating to a science experiment exploring conductivity.

Kit includes:

• 1 Battery Holder with battery

• 1 LED

• Paper Clips and pipe cleaners

• 6” Copper Tape

• 3D Printed Conductivity Probe

Next Generation Science Standards that align with this project include:

 2-PS1-1. Plan and conduct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.

2-PS1-2. Analyze data obtained from testing different materials to determine which materials have the properties that are best suited for an intended purpose.

4-PS3-2  Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents.

4-PS3-4. Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another.

3-5-ETS1-2 Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

3-5-ETS1-3. Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved.
