This lesson we are going to...

Look at the parts inside of a computer and see how these make a computer work!

Motherboard

• The motherboard is the computers main circuit board.

• It connects all of the parts of a computer together!

Central Processing Unit (CPU)

• The CPU processes the program instructions

Power Supply Unit

• Converts the power from the wall to the power needed by the computer.

RAM (Random Access Memory)

• I store all the applications and information in use.

• I am volatile which means I lose the data once you turn the power off!

ROM (Read Only Memory)

• Stores the operating instructions

• I am non-volatile which means I don't lose the information when you turn off the power

Hard Drive

• I store most the data!

• I store files, pictures and videos.

• I am non-volatile (I won't lose the data when you switch the power off)
