The Innovation Challenge – Grades 1-4
Children are creative, imaginative souls. Giving children the opportunity to use their creative senses and at the same time see the benefit of it is important. Children's ability to think new things is the key to creating the solutions of the future.
Building modules with electrical circuit
Through the Innovation Challenge teaching program , students are challenged to actively go through some of the central phases of a simplified innovation process. The building blocks the students use may consist of a simple electrical circuit. Students can connect LEDs, motors, fans and sound generators together to create electronic inventions using additional equipment such as cardboard, tape, string, ribbons and more. Finally, the invention is presented to the rest of the class.
Competency goals
The program has been developed by educators based on the Faculty Renewal.
