Circuits - Electricity

Professor Amanda visited again today, she brought a long an electrical circuit. It had a battery and a light bulb.

To help us to understand we went outside and made our own circuit.
Professor Amanda was the battery, the chairs  were the light bulb (resistor) and the straight lines on the court was the wire.

As we (the electrons) passed the battery, Amanda gave us a M and M to give us the energy to go around the circuit.

When we came to the light bulb (chairs) we had to slow down.
Electrons CAN NOT pass. Once all the M and M's were gone the battery and electrons went flat.
