Haunted House Paper Circuit STEM Challenge
by Misty Schreiber
In this lesson, students will learn about simple circuits, then create a simple circuit using copper tape, LED's, and batteries. Finally, they will construct a 3D model of a haunted house and use circuits to light-up the house and decorations, with additional constraints. You will need copper tape, LED's, batteries and a variety of building materials for this challenge. It will take approximately 4 - 6 class sessions depending on time.
