We have been exploring our lines of inquiry: Causes of movement and impacts of innovations with our inquiry into electrical circuits. Students should be able to explain the components of a circuit, the difference between and open and closed circuit as well as the difference between a parallel and series circuit. We will be exploring Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell this week and relating inventions and innovations to our science content for the term. We will be having our UOI Celebration on Wednesday December 14 @ 1:30-2:30. I really hope you can join us.
