What you need to learn in this chapter
In this chapter, we will be learning about electricity. We will start by understanding what an electric circuit is.
An electric circuit is a path that allows electricity to flow.
We will learn about the different components in an electric circuit, such as the dry cell, bulb, and switch.
We will also learn about the functions of these components in a complete electric circuit. By the end of this chapter, we will be able to identify and explain the different parts of an electric circuit.
Topics in this chapter
1. Electric Circuit
What you will learn in this topic
- Identify components in an electric circuit i.e. dry cell, bulb and switch
- Explain functions of the components in a complete electric circuit
- Build a complete electric circuit using dry cell, bulb, switch and connecting wires
- Predict why bulb does not light up in a circuit
- Record whether a bulb will light up when the switch is replaced with other objects or materials by carrying out investigations
- Make generalization of objects that can light up a bulb in a circuit are conductors and objects that cannot light up a bulb are insulators
- Explain observations about electric circuit using sketches, ICT, in written or verbal form
