In this lesson, students will ideate (brainstorm) ideas for their Snap Circuits projects and visuals/posters. Then, students will create a prototype of their poster using paper, pencil, and coloring implements. Finally, students will create their Snap Circuits prototypes. Students should only work on the material that corresponds to their project choice. For example: if a student chose Project 1A, they would only work on the Project 1A content.
