Introductory Circuits
1. In the LED Stickies activity, students connect coin cell batteries to LEDs to make simple light-up magnets (or popular LED throwies). What they learn about polarity and the importance of connecting the correct LED leg to each terminal of the battery will help as they move on to build more complex circuits. Questions: In doing this activity, students may notice that certain colors of LEDs glow brighter or stay lit longer. Why? (Note: Older kids might be challenged to adapt their LED Stickie...
Circuit Exploration with Robots and Drones
1. In the Building Junkbots—Robots from Recycled Materials lesson, students create simple circuits using AA batteries and DC motors to power vibrating robots they design and build from recycled and craft materials. (Note: While this robot-building activity can be used with students in other grades, this lesson is NGSS-aligned for grades 6-8.) For other robotics lessons, including introductory bristlebots and vibrobots, see 25+ Robotics Projects, Lessons, and Activities. https://www.youtube.co...
Everyday Circuits and Real-world Solutions
1. In the Make a Night-Lightactivity, students design and build a night light that comes on when the room dims and goes off when the room brightens. This intermediate circuit uses a potentiometer and a photoresistor to detect light and enable the night light's on and off functionality. 2. In the Make an Awesome Paper Lantern activity, students design their own paper lanterns. These lanterns can be lit with tea lights or by creating a circuit similar to the night light activity above. (Make co...
