This week in Art and Design, we learned how to set up simple circuits. First we learned the most basic principle of how electricity flows through a circuit, so that we could design closed circuits that worked. Otherwise we’d end up with circuits that didn’t have a closed path for electrons to flow through. Then we learned how to set up our circuits on a breadboard and how electricity flows on a breadboard. At first it was a little complicated, but then the pieces started to fall in place with practice. While dealing with breadboards we learned the difference between series circuits and parallel circuits, and how to incorporate resistors, and switches into our breadboards. Lastly, we also learned how to read and draw basic circuits on paper so that we could give and receive instructions, as to how to set up a circuit.
