Squishy Circuits

Working together in a team we first had to make a circuit that could light up five lights.  We got a sample picture as a guide but had to experiment with arranging the lights a few different ways with multiple formations of Plado before we had success.  For the second challenge we were shown a diagram of both a Series and Parallel circuit and had to work together to create a circuit that incorporated both.

We struggled in our team getting the lights to work initially because we kept creating a short.  The pieces of Plado were touching so the electrons weren't getting to the lights to make them work.

What I understood well was the different between a Series and Parallel circuit.  The diagram that was given to me was a helpful guide for completing the second challenge.
