One Stunted Day

With the half-day schedule, only B and C Blocks met.  B Block was given some brain-buster problems dealing with electric forces and fields that tied in some former labwork with our newly-practiced vector skills.  C Block, with an extend period, got to investigate electric circuits with SnapCircuits kits.  Students built a conductor meter, a UFO launcher, a doorbell and two other projects of their choice.  We'll spend quite a bit of time looking at electric circuits in a later chapter and work with the associated math, but this gives you nice preview of what electric circuits are and what they can do.
