This activity is appropriate for students ages 9 and up.  Any children under the age of 9 who attend will not be allowed to participate in soldering due to its dangerous nature.
 
In this activity, students are introduced to the concepts of open and closed circuits and electrical components such as wire, resistors, LED's and a battery so that they can build their very own quizboard. After designing the quiz questions themselves, students learn how to cut and strip wire and make electronic connections. Then, each student solders their electrical connections together. To complete the activity, students wire the board together and take their completed Quizboard home.
