Week 10: 6th Grade Science

Week: 10

Topic:  Electricity:  Electric Circuits

Objectives: 

Explain what Ohm’s Law is.  
Describe the basic features of an electric circuit.  
Identify how many paths currents can take in a series and parallel circuits.

Essential Question:

Which path will the current take?  

This week the kids will build and observe series and parallel circuits, then they will add a switch to their circuits.   While doing these experiments they will apply Ohm’s Law and see the relationship of resistance, voltage, and current. They will learn how to use a ammeter and a voltmeter. 

Key Terms:

Ohm’s Law
series and parallel Circuits
ammeter
voltmeter

Differentiation:

Observing
Predicting
Concluding
Math integration

Upcoming:


Next week we will conclude the unit by looking at electrical safety.
