Electricity & Circuit Kit - 20 Modules

The Electricity & Circuit Kit - 20 Modules by Gigo offers a dynamic and engaging approach to learning about electrical systems through interactive construction. With 117 pieces and 20 detailed lesson plans, this kit allows students to build real-world electrical models like alarms, torches, and traffic lights using modular components. Each lesson is designed to promote understanding of key concepts such as series and parallel circuits, conductors, switches, and energy flow. The inclusion of digital resources like the 3D Smart Manual further enhances comprehension by allowing students to visualise models in three dimensions, reinforcing the connection between theoretical knowledge and practical application.
