Blog Post #3

Today we built circuits and I thought it was really fun! here is a picture of my circuit:

The battery is connected to two wires. These wires are going to then connect to the switch and then there is another wire that will connect to the light bulb. Then, the light bulb would go on. I had a lot of fun and even though it took some help and a lot of time, I hope I will build a circuit later on! 😊

 

 

 

 

Technology – Post #2

Today we learned about circuits and how they work. I found this very interesting, especially when Mr.Calvert told us to go to www.nearpod.com for our daily “do now”. Nearpod is a website that Mr.Calvert introduced to us at the beginning of tech. This time, he gave us another link to a website which gave us a menu of things like batteries and wire. He wanted us to try to make a circuit before he explained it to us later on. WHat I found interesting about ht website was that we could build a circuit on the computers just like we could build a circuit in real life, just a lot easier and a little faster than building a circuit in real life.

We also learned a little bit about what we are going to be doing tomorrow. THere were things in the tray in the middle of our table like these:

We had also learned how to use wire cutters and this is what they looked like:

I think that I am going to enjoy building circuits  very much and hope to be doing it tomorrow on the thirtieth of November! 😜
