Today Shani gave us some print out papers of the circuit board to get a little more involved in the solar panel system and to choose a design that would work better for the solar panels.

We had to use:

-two resistors:  An electrical device that resists the flow of an electrical current

-1 led :  light emmitting diode

-copper plates:   A plate used in different ways such as engraving and etchin.

-batteries:  a power source

-a Mosfet:  A device used to switch or amplify electronic signals

The curcuit boards were very different from the drawdio boards so at first I was a little confused, shani had to help me a lot, after that , I saw that each material had to take its own space so the circuit could work.For example if the resistor took one place and I inserted a side of the led, then the whole thing couldn't work. So I had to find a way to put the materials inside the circuit board with out messsing up everything.
