1 – Creative Switch

Capture the flag!  This week, I came up with a scenario.  This scenario was built upon our in class review of simple DC circuits.  Given a LED (light emitting diode), battery, copper tape, and wires it was asked that I build a circuit that had a switch.  This switch scenario is based on the icon of a flag and the game capture the flag.  

When inserted between the two wooden base pieces, the LED at the top of the flag pole illuminates and goes on.  This is because the battery provides power to the load which has leads that align to the leads connected to the power source.  I would like to build this out further and provide "holes" where the flag does not have the LED go on because the idea is to discover "where" the circuit can be completed and where it does not!
