This is an inquiry-based activity that uses a PhET simulation to practice discussing basic electricity relationships in series and parallel circuits, building circuits from schematic drawings, using voltmeters and ammeters to take readings in circuits, and providing reasoning to explain the measurements in circuits. The accompanying simulations can be found here: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/circuit-construction-kit-ac and https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/circuit-construction-kit-dc
