Energy Story, Squishy Circuits
There were three stories’ that I needed to read or watch for our PARCC practice. The names were “Energy Story”, “Squishy Circuits”, and “Conducting Solutions”. All three stories’ mainly focused on the science behind electricity. The stories were very educational, as well as informational. In the next four paragraphs I will be telling how the story’s helped me to understand the technological science more.
The purpose of "Energy Story" is to teach you how all the atoms such as protons, neutrons, and electrons work when it comes to electricity. We learn all about how electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge, and that they have to have an equal amount of negative and positive. The "Energy Story" pretty much teaches us …show more content…
The video tells us how we can make play dough two different ways with household items. One playdough recipe has salt in it, but the opposed one has sugar. The one with salt can conduct electricity, and the one with sugar can't. If you plugged a battery pack wire into the salt dough and then put a LED light in it the LED would light up, but the playdough has to be separated in two, or you could put a piece of the sugar in between the two. If you plugged the led into a piece of sugary dough it does not have the ingredients needed to light it up, therefore causing it not to work. Finally, in the article "Conducting Solutions" the purpose is to inform us all about solutions. In the article it will educate you how ions can pass though liquid solutions. This video tells how an electric current is a flow of charge. Most solutions are liquid based. If not most then all of them. According, to this article ion pass through liquid solutions quite easily. That was all of the science I learned behind electricity. The stories were all very informing and educational. I understand how electricity works now, and I can comprehend it much better. I hope to try some of the examples and activity’s I learned in “Conducting Solutions”. That is what I learned when it comes to
