In this project, we used wires, lightbulbs, and batteries to begin the basics of electricity and circuits. We had two packets we had to complete. The first packet was to do electricity experiments so we get a better comprehension of voltage, resistance, current, and circuits. The packet required using alligator clips and light bulbs. The second packet required a breadboard(a board for making an experimental model of an electric circuit) This packet also required wires, resistors, etc to complete the circuit in order for the light to turn on. After those two packets, we got to go onto the computer and use this app, arduino to start coding. There was a booklet to follow all of the instructions and had the computer to upload it to see if it works.

Reflection: Our group was lacking over this project. We were typically always behind the other groups. Even though our group was new at it, we should've asked for k=more help in order to stay up with everyone else. We should've gotten done with the first packet quicker and took our time more with the second one, then thought about our final product more to make it more interesting.
I worked on this project with Reema Heydari, and Brittany Fung
