Homeschool Class: Potato Power!

Mar 3rd- (9:30 – 11:00am or 1:00 – 2:30pm)

Potato Power: Electric Circuits at their Best

Students will have the opportunity to learn the basic terminology of a circuit and the purpose of the electron. Students will learn the difference between AC and DC power. They will learn how to use a voltmeter. Students will construct a basic circuit. Students will then expand their basic circuit to a series circuit and parallel circuit. Student will be able to compare and contrast the two expanded circuits. Student will also be able to infer real world applications for all three circuit types. Students will then apply their knowledge and work with an alternative energy sources (Lemon or Potato) to create a battery and a functional basic circuit on their own.
