GCSE Physics P2 lesson Series Circuits using key content from AQA exam specification.
The starter for the lesson revisits models as a way of helping to explain principles of electric circuits. The model used is a simple model which you can do as a class activity or a class demo by simply using string with dots spotted around the string. This helps to summarise key terms before moving onto series circuit rules.
The string model is then used to help pupils explain key series circuit rules which are summarised.
The main uses a circuit experiment requiring the pupils to build 6 different simple circuits using ammeters and voltmeters, results can be drawn with circuit diagrams. (Support sheet included for pupils that may struggle drawing circuits).
Plenary uses a series of questions to apply pupil knowledge of series circuit rules.
