MAKING A BASIC CIRCUIT
A circuit is a closed path that electrons flow along.
A simple electric circuit contains:
1. A power source (battery)
2. Inductor (wires, foil)
3. A resistor (light bulb).
4. A switch (One end of the foil should be your switch
In addition to the major elements above, to create your circuit, you need:
1. Letter-sized (cartridge paper and/or cardboard)
2. Markers for labeling each component on the circuit
3. Clear tape to hold the inductor, batteries and the resistor.
RUBRIC FOR CIRCUIT_______
Functionality - 2 (Light must appear when the switch is closed
Creativity - 2 (Must add some 'life' to the cartridge paper. No need to be elaborate)
Collaboration - 2 (Must work together peacefully)
Correct Labeling 2 (General Name plus the name of each element)
Use of time - 2 (Must complete with an hour)
Neatness - 2 Papers, tapes and labels must be neatly arranged)
TOTAL 12
In a circuit, electrons flow from the battery, through the wires, and into the light bulb. When the bulb receives enough of these electrons it will light up. When constructed properly, you will be able to light your bulb with just a few simple steps.
