T2 W4

EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

• We are EXPLORING our context of 'Chaos' through technology and innovation by recognising the role that electricity has played in the modern world.
• We are EXPLORING our context of 'Chaos' through technology and innovation by experimenting with different circuits and observing how components work in a electrical circuit

This week we will be looking at resistors, familiarising with more electrical components and their symbols and completing the checkpoints for Week 4 , for your Science Fair project. 

Plan for the week is as follows: 

Monday: Resistors in a circuit (notes and demo model) , Science Fair group discussion on Checkpoint for week 4. 

Wednesday:  MOTAT trip 

Thursday: PHET circuit simulations and drawing circuit diagrams.

Success Criteria: I can/have...

• Understand the purpose of resistors in a circuit and draw the symbol for this 
• Be able to construct 4-5 different circuits and draw the circuit diagrams ( with the correct symbols)
