For this physics lesson 4th grade students investigate electrical circuits in greater depth than the FOSS unit used in a prior grade in school. Students become familiar with a computer simulation allowing them greater choices of materials to "build" an electric circuit. The simulation also models the "schematics" which will help students with their diagrams.
