ELECTRICITY LESSON PLAN

-
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this lesson, students will be able to:

define 'electricity'
distinguish between static and current electricity
list the ways we use electricity each day
experiment with electricity and conductors

Key Vocabulary
Electricity
Static electricity
Current electricity
Conductors
Materials
The quiz associated with this text lesson
Balloons
Tinsel
Yarn

Instructions
Begin by turning off the lights in the cla
ssroom for five seconds.
Now turn them back on for five seconds, off again for two seconds, and then back on.

Ask the students to consider what was happening as the light flickered in class and discuss this briefly as a class.

Now have the class read the 'What Is Electricity?' section of the text lesson What is Electricity? - Lesson for Kids.
Did anyone mention electricity in the class discussion?

Now ask them to consider of there are different types of electricity. Discuss this briefly as a class.
Instruct the students to read the 'Static Electricity' section of the text lesson now.

When they have finished reading, have them stand up and practice rubbing their shoes quickly on the carpet and touching one another gently on the fingers to see if they can create static electricity.

Objectives:

Students will be able to name the name parts of an atom.

Students will be able to describe the critical part of an atom responsible for electricity.

Students will be able to define electricity.

Students will be able to design a simple circuit making one light bulb light.

Students will be able to define current electricity.

Students will be able to identify the main parts of a simple circuit.
Students will be able to draw and interpret simple circuit diagrams


An open switch creates an air gap across which the electrons cannot flow meaning the load or loads do not receive the energy from the electrons and they do not work.
An electric circuit must travel in a circular pattern. It begins at the negative terminal of the source and ends at the positive terminal of the source.

Discussion Questions
What would our lives be like without electricity?
Which type of electricity do we experience most often?

CBSE CLASS 10 PHYSICS PRACTICAL       CHAPTER - 12  'ELECTRICITY'   (Experiment to Verify Ohm's Law)  ************************************ Dependence of Potential Difference Across a Resistor on the Current  Passing through it and determine its resistance.  Studying the dependence of potential difference (V) across a resistor on the current (I) passing through it and determine its resistance. Also plotting a graph between V and I Potential difference is defined as the work done to move a unit charge from one point to the other. The SI unit of potential difference is volt. Electromotive force is defined as the electric potential produced by either an electrochemical cell or by changing the magnetic field. Below is an experiment to study the dependence of the potential difference across a resistor with current-carrying I.

Determination of Focal Length of Concave Mirror and Convex Lens Before getting started with the experiment, it is important to understand a few terms that are used in a concave mirror and convex lens: Centre of curvature: For a curved mirror, the centre of curvature, C can be defined as the centre of a hollow glass sphere of which a curved mirror is a part. Radius of curvature: For a curved mirror, the radius of curvature, R can be defined as the radius of the hollow glass sphere of a spherical mirror is part. Principal axis: Principal axis is defined as the imaginary line passing through the pole and centre of curvature of the spherical mirror. Principal focus: Principal focus is defined as a point at which the reflected rays meet or appear to meet for the spherical mirror.  For a concave mirror, the principal focus is in the front and  For a convex mirror, the principal focus is at the behind. Below is an experiment to determine the focal length of a concave mirror a
