Description
Use technical vocabulary for electrical circuits — circuit, component, cell, battery, current, voltage, resistance, conductor, insulator, switch, series circuit, parallel circuit — and apply these when describing, drawing, and designing working circuits
Mastery Evidence
- Use 'series' and 'parallel' correctly to describe two different circuit configurations and explain the key difference
- Apply 'current', 'voltage', and 'resistance' correctly in a written description of how a circuit works
- Name at least six standard circuit components and describe what each one does
Assessment Prompt
Does your child know the difference between a series circuit and a parallel circuit — not just which one, but what actually makes them different electrically?
