Teknikio Electric Quilt Classroom Kit

Share your story through electronic quilt making! The Quilt kit is a collaborative, storytelling project that allows students to create individual patches that incorporate soft circuits. This kit provides easy-to-use electronic components to create up to 20 patches that can come together to make a large quilt. Students can collaborate to mix and match their patches on the quilt to create various stories. Also included in the kit is a comprehensive project guide with detailed lesson plans that align with the NGSS Engineering Standards and the Common Core Standards.
