Description
Teach electricity while adding structure and assessment to your ELECTRIC CIRCUIT ARCADE GAMES engineering project! (MS-PS2-3, MS-PS2-5). Using electricity to build games can be so much fun and students learn about circuits, insulators and conductors, and the strength of electric forces as they create. In all of the excitement it can be easy for the students to lose their focus so I have created a more structured approach to the engineering process.
The students start out with a brainstorming session, that includes a rubric, and plan, plan, plan. As they work their way through building the game they fill out daily progress reports plus I have included rubrics for the teacher to use to assess the progress of each student each day. At the end of the project the students have a self-assessment form to fill out and there is a final grading form.
Included in this resource:
- Teacher notes
- Examples of my students’ games
- Electric Circuit Games project directions
- Brainstorming questions
- Brainstorming session rubric
- Daily Journal cards
- Daily project assessment cards
- Organizational pages for the students to include their sketches and descriptions
- Self assessment for students
- Final Game assessment rubric
==>My blog post How to Create STEM Electrical Circuit Games can guide you through how I do this fun unit!
There are several methods I use to get this resource to students.
- Since this is a PowerPoint, I simply upload it into a Google slides presentation and share it on Google Classroom with each individual student. The students can then copy which slides they want and paste them into their own Google Slides unit presentation and add text boxes.
- You can export the PowerPoint into images and then send the images to them in Google Classroom.
- You can download the PowerPoint into images and place all of the images into a Google Drive folder to share with the students.
- If you are using iPads, in the same room as the students, you can simply AirDrop the images, Powerpoint or Google Slides presentation to their iPads .
