Wednesday, February 4th:
First of all, Mr.Westhafer introduced us to a new unit, Unit 3. At the start of this unit; today in class, we worked with Arduino circuits. Arduino circuits are consisted of a bread-board, LED lights (yellow and red), jumper wires (multiple colours), and resistors (different sizes). In this lesson we had today we basically experimented with how electricity can be transferred from one place to another, with turning on/blinking the LED light(s). We tested 3 different ways electricity can travel; Circuit 1, Circuit 1 Series, and Circuit 1 Parallel. With completing each one we had various questions to answer, such as what happens if you remove an LED light, or what are the differences between each circuit, etc.

Today in class, we worked with our Arduino's again. With our Arduino's we had many tasks to complete. Such as changing the amounts of LED's, the size of the Resistors, and the type of Resistors. We had two worksheets to do and they asked multiple questions and stated tasks in what we had to do with our Arduino's.
