Can You See the Light?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Third and fourth graders use this worksheet to help them draw their own version of a fully functioning circuit. They see the battery, the light bulb, and two wires with clips. They must draw the complete circuit, using these elements, on a separate piece of paper. This would be a good starting off point for learners actually building their own circuit.
