Part of Lesson Plan: Basic Circuitry

Activity Overview / Details

For this activity you will need to purchase (there are a number of kits ranging from $10 - $40) or develop simple circuit kits (check with your science department, they may have these kits) for groups of students (ideally one kit for every two students) or book your school's computer lab and have the students build electric circuits online. Make copies of or show with a LCD projector the above power point (slides 6-24) and have the students develop these circuits using the circuit kits or the "make an electric circuit online."
