In this circuits worksheet students complete a circuit building exercise and answer questions about different circuits.  There is an answer link.

In this measuring current worksheet, students determine where the switch should be placed in a circuit and how the current at one point in a circuit compares to other points in the circuit. Students also draw diagrams of an ammeter and...

In this electricity worksheet, students read about static and current electricity and then draw pictures of an electric cell and circuits. Students draw 3 pictures total.

In this circuits worksheet, students read about total voltage, total resistance, and total current. Students learn about voltage across a resistor and short circuits. After completing the reading, students complete 4 circuit questions...

Learners build small circuits using transformers. In this electromagnetism lesson plan, students will show that transformers increase voltage which leads to an increase in current. An ammeter and the brightness of a light bulb will be...

Students investigate energy using a photovoltaic cell. In this electricity activity, students collect data from current-voltage and power-voltage curves to determine if photovoltaic systems have an advantage over conventional electric...

At the end of a general physics course focused on light and electricity, you can administer this exam. Concepts covered include electromagnetism, circuits, induction, light rays, lenses and mirrors, characteristics of light, electron...

In this circuits worksheet, students compare voltage, current, and resistance. Students draw a battery with a resistor, switch, and light bulb. This worksheet has 6 short answer, 1 matching, and 6 drawing questions.

Students work to increase the intensity of a light bulb by testing batteries in series and parallel circuits. They analyze Ohm's Law, power, parallel and series circuits, and ways to measure voltage and current.

Energize a shared reading of the Magic School Bus and the Electric Field Trip with this collection of supplemental materials. Whether your looking for discussion questions, reading comprehension worksheets, or writing prompts,...

For this English worksheet, students read "Fifth Night of Riots in Paris Suburb," and then respond to 47 fill in the blank, 7 short answer, 20 matching, and 8 true or false questions about the selection.

Fifth graders explore electrical concepts and host a guest speaker. This lesson sets up guidelines for students to follow when they have a guest speaker. Students are primed to become actively involved in a lecture or discussion, while...

Students explore electricity by completing a scientific worksheet in class. For this electromagnetism lesson, students discuss the history of magnets and how electromagnets are most commonly used in our daily lives. Students complete a...
