Electricity Activities













The 5th graders spent several science class periods doing electricity activities. They completed electric circuits and added switches to open and close the circuits. Then they tested objects to see if they were conductors or insulators. Plus, they made series and parallel circuits. These scientists were able to see first hand that the lights were dimmer in a series circuit than in a parallel circuit. Also if one light went out, they all did in a series circuit, but not in a parallel circuit.
