Circuit puzzles

Aim: To solve two puzzles that demonstrate the connection of electrical circuits

You will need: •Card copies of the circuit elements for both the series and parallel circuits

Instructions: Copy and cut out the following pieces and use them to demonstrate the correct connection of components in a series and parallel circuit. The series components will only work in the series circuit and the parallel components will only work in a parallel circuit

You will find that there is only one way in which they will fit together to produce a correct circuit.


Series circuit components



Parallel circuit components
