Physics: Electricity and Magnetism
Pupils draw series and parallel electrical circuits. In this electromagnet lesson, students describe how current changes depend on circuit components. Pupils use an OHT of a series and parallel circuit to predict the path of...
Curated OER
Switcheroo
Students construct a simple switch and determine what objects and what types of materials can be used to close a switch in a circuit and light a light bulb.
Curated OER
More Power to You
Students construct a simple galvanometer in order to detect the presence of an electric current as well as determine the amount of the current. Activity is divided into two parts, first part as group work and second as individual.
Curated OER
Using Electricity
Students name appliances that use electricity. They construct a simple electrical circuit. They predict whether a circuit work. They name components of an electrical circuit.
Curated OER
Signaling
In this signaling learning exercise, students follow directions to make a circuit involving batteries, light bulbs, wires and more. Students then try to make morse code signals with their circuit.
Curated OER
Electricity
Students examine basic electrical components. They build a simple electrical circuit which rings a buzzer. They experiment with conducting and nonconducting materials.
Curated OER
Resistance
In this resistance worksheet, students use batteries, a breadboard, washers and more to make a parallel circuit and create resistance. Students then answer 7 questions.
Curated OER
Plants and Animals in the Local Environment
Students recognize the different types of plants and animals living in a local environment. They determine how they require different habitats to live, and relate simple life processes to plants and animals found in local environments.
Curated OER
The Technology of Light
Learners study the different types of light bulbs. In this exploratory instructional activity students complete several activities and create an electrical circuit.
Curated OER
OHM's Law
Students study the relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a series circuit. In this investigative lesson students watch a demonstration and see how voltage is measured and see what OHM's law is.
Curated OER
Using electricity
Young scholars explore how a switch can be used to break a circut. Students construct a simple series circuit and use it for a purpose. Young scholars read the "The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch,or one of the "Katie Morag" stories which...
