Simple Circuit Measurements

DoNow: What is the relationship between circuit current, circuit voltage and circuit resistance? Create an analogy that models the behavior the current through a resistor.

AIM: I can identify the settings to measure voltage on the multi-meter and how to connect the meter safely for safe voltage measurement of a circuit component within a circuit. I can describe the relationship between brightness and voltage or current for light bulb or resistor in a single loop circuit.
