Electronics!

Today we have done electronics as the first part of our technology rotation.

It was great, we have learnt how electronic circuits function, how to build circuits on the electroflash kits and lots more.

Firstly the electroflash kits. That was great. We learnt about LED's resistors and conductors. Everyone in class participated and functioned very well with their working buddies - we call that collaboration. At times we also had to show resilience, especially when things didn't want to work.

Secondly we learned to solder, now that is interesting. We used the process of soldering to merge wires together when we build circuits. Everyone in class built a low voltage tester today, that was hours of fun, but we can't wait, tomorrow we are going to build steady hand games.
