Questions for Discussion: Designing Electric Circuits: Steadiness Tester

  • What is a conductor?
  • Make a drawing of the steadiness tester game. Label the parts of the electric circuit that are conductors. Why must there be conductors to make the game work?
  • What other materials could be used to make a steadiness tester? Would a steadiness tester work if it were made out of plastic?
  • Can you think of another game that uses an electric circuit? Describe the circuit and how it is completed or interrupted as part of the game.
  • Can you invent your own game that uses an electric circuit?
