These kids did some amazing work with paper circuits today. Each child created their own paper circuits book to demonstrate a simple circuit, a parallel circuit, and a switch. We used copper tape and LED stickers. We'd make the circuit on a blank page and then turn back a page and draw a design that incorporated the light that was shining through the paper.
We talked about how a simple circuit can only power one light and how a parallel circuit can have as many lights as there is space. We talked about the positive and negative sides of a battery and how they have to match up to the correct end on the sticker lights.
Then we dove into crafting and creating. With all the supplies available students worked on helicopters, message delivery systems, pencil holders, cards, and art. They all did a fantastic job!
