Starting with the circuit symbols for a battery, lamp, ammeter, voltmeter, switch, and resistor, the engaging animated PowerPoint then shows how to use them to construct circuit diagrams of both series circuits and parallel circuits from sketches and descriptions of electrical circuits.
Students will get lots of practice in both drawing circuit diagrams and also setting up circuits if apparatus is available
An easy to follow one-page flow chart lesson plan indicates where logical choices between resources can be made and indicates whether each activity includes literacy, oracy or AFL .
Objective
- To know the symbols for a switch, a resistor, a lamp, a voltmeter, a battery and an ammeter.
- To be able to recognise series and parallel circuits.
- To be able to draw simple and complex series and parallel circuits from sketches and descriptions.
Resources
- Animated 17 slide PowerPoint- includes exit ticket /plenary quiz

Current Electricity Circuits and Symbols Classroom, Distance and Blended Learning for KS2
Starting with the circuit symbols for the electrical components a battery, lamp, ammeter, voltmeter, switch, and resistor, this action-packed distance or remote learning package then shows how to use them to construct circuit diagrams of both series circuits and parallel circuits from sketches and descriptions of electrical circuits. The two packs in this resource allow the same lesson to be taught to students whether they are in a classroom or distance learning at home. It facilitates blended learning and provides equality of opportunity for students who are unable to attend school due to Covid-19. The classroom resource consists of an animated 15 slide PowerPoint and 12varied and exciting printables including a foldable, cut-and-stick and progress check. The one-page flowchart lesson plan shows where choices can be made between the printables so that the teacher can select the activities to suit the exact needs of their class. The distance learning pack consists of a 49 slide animated PowerPoint which, not only teaches the science but also how to gain maximum benefit from distance learning. The PowerPoint has been designed to replace the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. Additional worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress. These can be printed off by the student or provided by school. There is also a short digital test/homework which can be returned to the teacher. The practical, whether real time in the classroom of simulated for distance learning, takes the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results. **Objective** * To be able to recognise and draw the symbols for a battery, lamp, voltmeter, ammeter, switch, resistor and motor. * To be able to draw simple and more complex circuit diagrams from sketches of circuits with actual apparatus. * To be able to recognise and draw series and parallel circuits.
