Visiting Mr Romard's Class...

Science
We will play a mystery circuit game to determine how wires are setup behind a hidden display. We will learn how to read simple electrical diagrams and how to make a bulb super bright. Students will be asked to bring a used bulb from home so we can break it inside a bag to identify the parts and discuss how it works.
