A STEAM-fueled twist on a classic drawing toy! In this project, students build a handheld digital drawing tool with a programmable LCD display, buttons, and knobs to create their own personalized artist palette. Through hands-on exploration, students engage with the science of displays, coordinate systems, and shape plotting, applying these concepts to design custom brushes and create unique, interactive artwork—all while strengthening critical STEAM skills and having fun!

How can we use electronics and coding to create a color digital drawing device?
Common Core ELA
Students will determine the meaning of unknown words, acquire and use new grade-appropriate vocabulary, engage in collaborative discussions, and pose and respond to relevant questions.
Computer Science Teaching Association Standards (CSTA)
Students will model how computer software and hardware work together, they will create programs, and test/debug programs.
Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS)
Students will engage in conversation, listen actively, ask relevant questions, and make pertinent comments during discussions. They will use context provided to determine the meaning of unknown words.
