Electricity

Thank you for purchasing Elementary Physics: Electricity. Here are a few more resources to consider:   I CAN COMPLETE AN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT. Teacher Background – the Physics Classroom Completing the Circuit – use batteries, wire, small light bulbs to complete a circuit Circuits: One Path for Electricity   I CAN TEST MATERIALS FOR ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY. Teacher Background – the Physics Classroom Circuits and Conductors – BBC animation hosted at sciencekids.co.nz Will It Conduct? – build and use a simple conductivity tester Go with the Flow – electrical conductors and insulators
