US Grade 4 - 5
Beginner - Intermediate Level
Get ready to embark on an electrifying adventure! In this class, we won't just be learning about circuits, we'll be becoming  electricity detectives. We'll crack the code of how this invisible force powers our world, from the lights in your room to the video games you love.

Imagine tiny superheroes called electrons zipping through wires at lightning speed, delivering energy wherever it's needed.  But not everything likes these energetic electrons! We'll discover which materials are like super-highways for electricity (conductors) and which act as roadblocks (insulators).

This won't be just a textbook journey. We'll be conducting our own top-secret experiments, building circuits, and witnessing the power of electricity firsthand. It'll be like having our own mini-power plant right here in the classroom!

But wait, there's more! We'll also be uncovering the hidden dangers of electricity and learning how to be responsible "electricity ninjas," wielding its power safely and wisely.

So, are you ready to unlock the secrets of electricity and become a master of this invisible force?  Let's get this class charged up!
