This document provides an introduction to robotics and electrical circuits. It discusses what robots are and provides an overview of basic electrical circuit concepts like Ohm's Law and what constitutes a circuit. It also outlines safety protocols for working with electrical materials, such as always wearing safety glasses and keeping the work area clean. Students are assigned a snap circuit activity where they will work in groups to build 2-4 simple circuits per week by following the circuit instructions and using the numbered circuit pieces to form complete loops.

1. Introduction to Robotics
What are Robots

2. Review
•What is Ohms Law?
• Defining it
• Three things it has to do with
• The equation/math
•Where is Ohms Law used?

3. Overview
•What is a Circuit
•Safety Protocol Using Snap
•Using Snap Activity

4. What is an
electrical
circuit?
A path/loop
which electrons
take in

5. Basic Electrical Circuits

6. Safety Glasses
• Always wear safety glasses
when working with or if in the
same room/area someone's
working with:
• Heated materials
• Electrical materials
• Sharp objects
• Machinery
• Do not leave project
unattended

7. Safety Glasses
• Must keep area clean at all
time
• When working with snap
circuit:
• Do only as project direction
requires you to…
• failure can cause short
circuit, blackout or damage

8. Safety Glasses
• Ask for Help if:
• Lost
• if something is not working
right
• There’s a missing piece

9. Snapcircuitory
Activity
All the pieces are color-
coded and numbered.
Each circuit has 3 basic
components
• Power Source
• Active Component
• Wire
When building these
“CIRCUIT” each one is a
complete loop

10. Snapcircuitory
Activity
Your assignment this week
• Follow the snap circuit
instruction
• Use grid to build circuit
• Working in groups of 3-4
• Goal is to do 2-4 Projects
a week (will be graded)
