Parts of a Circuit
Objective:
What: SWBAT describe properties of electricity and electric circuits
How: Students will create a comic strip to describe the 3 main parts of an electric current that relate to Ohm's Law
Why: To be critical thinkers, we need to connect our knowledge of Ohm's law to the ways that those different parts work together in a circuit

Complete the Ohm's Law assignment. If you master each of those skills, you will be in good shape for the quiz!
Early finishers
You should only watch these videos and activities if you've completed EVERYTHING ELSE for today's assignment. These two videos show some of the properties of steel wool that we discussed in class.
A really cool example of steel wool burning. Since the wool is spinning, there is a tons of oxygen for it to react with. The fire continues to burn because the wool is so hot, and there is plenty of oxygen to make every part of the steel wool burn until there is nothing left.
