Quarter 3 (2025-26)
February 10/11
Unit 4.1: Electricity
Objectives
- In Lesson 3.1, students explore the basic components of electrical circuits and model them through a hands-on introduction. They then explore the basic elements of electricity and electrical circuits and build simple circuits with breadboards and online simulations. Students collect data to derive the formula for Ohm’s Law then apply their understanding of Ohm’s Law to solve problems. They then move into a comparison between series and parallel circuits and explore their similarities and differences. Students continue hands-on breadboarding and simulations to derive Kirchhoff’s voltage and current laws. They end the lesson with a final project that applies all the skills acquired to design and build their own functional safe.
Classroom Activities
- Prayer
- Continue Electronics Project (Day 7). Projects should be completed by end of class after break (Monday 2/23).
- Make sure you are keeping up on your TinkerCAD.
- Other design notes. I encourage you to cad some component. If you do, make sure to have your multiview drawing there and some documentation explaining your assembly.
- Log your daily activities also.
- Test postponed till Thursday, 2/12. Will only be on Electricity. See study guide.
