SMART GOAL SPECIFIC SENTENCE: I will learn about Computer Science using Sparkfun Inventor's Kit
HOW TO SAVE: Put all loose pieces back in the kit box > Place your kit on top of the white lid > Put it back on the shelf
What is Arduino?
Click HERE for more information on Arduino and its programming useĀ
Also, read the first few pages of the instruction booklet in the kit
Get through the first 4 circuits before moving on to the LED strip!
What I'll Learn
I CAN understand circuits and why they are needed for electronics
I CAN build circuits from instructions and understand their uses
I CAN create my own circuits using available parts!
Stuff I'll Need
Sparkfun Inventor's Kit
Tutorials to learn the tools
Patience and resilience to push through
Day 1
Learn the tools, follow the tutorial for Circuit 1, swap the LEDs for different colors
Day 3
Finish with Circuit 4 and move on to the LED strip challenge
Day 2
Move on to Circuits 2 & 3. Make sure the LEDs work. Follow the instructions!
Day 4
Try to wire a button and combine the LED animations
Programming an LED Strip
Follow the instructions on this site to get started! --> LED STRIP ANIMATIONS WITH ARDUINO
