Invention Concepts Sketch

Critical Thinking & Problem Solving Submission Required

In small teams, students brainstorm multiple invention ideas inspired by Lonnie Johnson's story. They record quick brainstorm ideas, create simple sketches or storyboards using pictures or icons, and build a simple feasibility/impact grid that shows how each idea could help people and whether it can be made with classroom materials. Each team selects their top three concepts and writes short, kid-friendly rationales explaining why those ideas would help real users.
