Will the bulb light up?
灯泡会亮吗?
Description
Identify whether or not a lamp will light in a simple series circuit, based on whether the lamp is part of a complete loop with a battery
Mastery Evidence
- Predict whether a lamp will light by tracing the circuit for a complete loop
- Explain that a gap anywhere in the circuit breaks the loop and the bulb won't light
- Identify the fault in a non-working circuit (e.g. loose wire, missing connection)
Assessment Prompt
If your child looks at a circuit diagram, can they tell you whether the bulb will light up or not, based on whether there's a complete loop?
