This is a comprehensive S.T.E.A.M. project that integrates arts curriculum into Science. Students will review simple circuits, parallel circuits and switches. Then in conjunction with their Science teacher, they will learn about conductivity, polarity and introductory crafting techniques. Students will integrate circuits into their design and sewing of a piece of clothing, jewelry or cloth panel  bracelet. This project aligns with the new Common Core State Standards while instilling the 21st century skills that are essential to success in the global economy.
