How does the electricity get from the pole to the homes?

Pull

Apr 24­4:30 PM

page 191. Describe the path you think electricity takes to get from the pole to the rooms inside the buildings. 

2. What kind of circuit (open or closed) do you need to have in order for light switches to work inside each building?

3.  How do electrons travel along an electrical current or path?

Apr 21­9:29 AM

Circuit Demonstration 

­Everyone needs to be standing shoulder to shoulder in a circle around the middle table

­Next hold your hand out to receive your electron and wait for instructions 

Apr 22­9:54 AM

Circuit Demonstration 1. Closed circuit vs open circuit

2. One light bulb... Then two light bulbs

3. One switch then two switches.

How can we make it so only one light bulb is on?

Apr 22­9:59 AM Apr 24­12:00 PM

page 21   Explain

1. Explain the difference between a prediction and a guess.

2. What needs to happen in order for electricity to light a bulb?

Apr 30­9:23 AM

Vocabulary to add to your glossary in the notes section

Resistor ­ a material that slows the flow of electric current

Circuit breaker ­ a switch that automatically interrupts the flow of current under certain conditions 

Fuse ­ a safety device that protects a circuit, usually by melting a wire when the current is too high

Electron ­ a part of an atom with a negative charge

Short circuit ­ a low resistance path that allows most of a current to flow directly from one pole to another 

Apr 24­4:44 PM

page 22

3. How would having two wires instead of one change any of these circuits?

4. What did this activity help you to understand about the path that electricity takes?

Vocabulary page 23

1. Think about how open and closed circuits work and the simulation in class where you passed "electrons" around the circle.  Use these ideas as you explain how electrons and resistors relate to the flow of electricity.

2. How do fuses and circuit breakers help prevent short circuits?
