Conductors

Insulators

What objects do you think will conduct elec-tricity?

What objects do you think will insulate from electricity?

Why is plastic or rubber often used to make the casing of a torch? Why is steel often used to make wires and switch connections in a torch?

Electronics Project—Torch

Torch disassembly. Label the torch below and add annotations to explain how each part of the torch functions.

Electricity is dangerous! You must follow these simple rules when using electrical appliances

Choose a rule and draw a safety sign for it.

Electronics project

In Design & Technology we use sym-bols to represent the different components in a circuit. So a circuit like this

Is drawn like this.

Electronics project

Draw the symbols for these components

Draw the correct symbols in the cir-cuit diagram.

Electronics Project—Torches

Draw a circuit with a switch in that is turned off. Draw a circuit with a switch in that is turned on.

Miss Fisher will show you how to make a toggle switch. You will need: a red wire, a black wire, 2x split pins, 1x paper clip. Explain how you made your switch.
