Series and Parallel Circuits without Batteries

Description

National Standards for Grades 3-6

Teach students to build parallel and series circuits using electrical components. Students begin by following the flow of energy from a battery as it converts to chemical, electrical, light, sound, motion, and heat energy. They observe how energy flow differs when using batteries and loads in series and in parallel. Allow for 5 hours of instruction and 5 hours of lab time.
