- Static electricityExplaining everyday effects of static electricity with the principles of static electricity (C2.1).
- Current electricity and circuitsWhat current electricity is and how it differs from static electricity; good conductors and insulators; the parts of a simple circuit; series and parallel circuits (C2.2, C2.3, C2.6, C2.7).
- Energy into and out of electricityHow technologies turn other forms of energy into electrical energy, and how electrical energy is turned into other forms of energy (C2.4, C2.5).
- Using electrical energy wiselyWeighing the impacts of generating electrical energy in Canada, and the choices that reduce our own use of it (C1.1, C1.2).
Brief
Strand C of the Grade 6 Science and Technology course: Matter and Energy, which is about electrical energy. It has four lessons, on static electricity, current electricity and circuits, changing energy into and out of electricity, and using electrical energy wisely; the museum holds no record that serves any of them yet, so the four lessons offer no cards. 1
