NATURAL SCIENCE PROJECT:ELECTRIC CIRCUIT

In our last PROJECT you will have to create your own electrical circuit.

Due date: Wednesday 31st May 2023

MATERIALS:

• A light bulb
• A battery
• Lead wires
• A switch
• A support
• Lots of imagination

STEPS:

1.- The first thing we will do is choose the base on which to lay out our circuit, you can choose a piece of cardboard or a piece of wood or conglomerate.

2.- Next, we will place the battery on one end of the support and fix it well with adhesive tape.

3.- In another of the ends we will fix a small bulb also with adhesive tape. And in another of the ends of the support we will place the switch.

4.- Now that we have the elements placed, we must incorporate the cables so that the current can pass from the generator to the bulb when we open the switch, or turn off when we cut it. For this we will use the connectors or cables. You must remove part of the insulation of the cable on the outside, which is commonly known as "stripping" it to expose the inner copper wire. Use scissors for this.

5.- Now, wrap the exposed wire around the different connections of each element: from the positive pole of the battery to the light bulb, from the light bulb to the switch and from the switch to the negative pole of the light bulb.

Don´t forget to label it:-generator(battery)-receptor(light bulb)-Switch-conducting Cables

6.- And finally be creative and try to build something. It can be a traffic light, a house, a lighthouse....
