The Electric House Project

In science class, we spent a couple weeks learning about electricity and how to build circuits with wires. At the end of the unit, we partnered up with a peer with the challenge of building a model house out of cardboard, wires and other materials. This was a tough challenge, our house had to consist of three lights, a buzzer, and a motor. This project taught us how to collaborate effectively, and how to troubleshoot problems. After everyone had finished we put all our houses on one circuit and made our own electric cardboard town.
