The teaching and learning of invention literacy is often locked behind many pre-requisite skills and expensive STEM toys. Scrappy Circuits breaks down these barriers to learning to invent through using a modular system of bricks build by the learner and sourced for commonly found objects. During our session we will build off of the 5 Core Bricks and add the Magic Wand and Buzzer bricks.

Watch and make LIVE on the Family Maker Camp FB page or on the Make: Kids Youtube channel.

Materials list:

• dollar store window alarm (we will harvest the buzzer and the magnet)
• 4 small binder clips
• 4 paper clips
• some cardboard
• aluminum foil
• popsicle stick
• scissors
• sandpaper
