Today we were making circuits and it was fun!

What did we use?

We used copper tape, LED lights, sellotape, a switch and a motor.

How to make it

So first we got the copper tape and stuck it down and then we got an LED and split the legs of it and stuck it down on top of the copper tape with tape and then we put the red wire and the black wire and touched the copper wire and the light lit up.

What is happening?

So what is happening is that the battery is outputting power and the copper tape is conducting electricity and the electricity is passing through the LED and is going down the other bit of copper tape and the excess electricity is going back into the battery.

Our investigations

So we tried to find out how many lights the battery could power. We also figured out how to power the fan!
