Electricity 1. Pupils should be taught
a) to construct circuits, incorporating a battery or power supply and a
range of switches, to make electrical devices work [for example, buzzers,
motors]
|
|
|
|
b) how changing the number or type of
components [for example, batteries, bulbs, wires] in a series circuit can
make bulbs brighter or dimmer |
|
|
|
c) how to represent series circuits by drawings
and conventional symbols, and how to construct series circuits on the basis
of drawings and diagrams using conventional symbols. |
