US Grade 2 - 5
This 4-session hands-on course shows learners how to build electrical circuits with play dough and LEDs! The course uses Squishy Circuits, a highly intuitive, fun and child-safe way for kids to start exploring electricity and circuits. We'll first discuss what electricity actually is on a quantum physics level (a current of electron charges), and explore how it travels through a parallel circuit and a series circuit. Then we'll delve into the nature of conductivity, and test several items to...
Students will learn about: - Atoms and subatomic particles (protons, neutrons and electrons) - What makes up electricity (a current of electron charges) - Introduction to how batteries work - What makes a circuit (a pathway where electrons can flow from the negative side of a circuit to the positive side) - Designing parallel circuits and series circuits to light LEDs - Understanding conductive and non-conductive materials (insulators) - What creates a "short circuit" - Introduction to drawing circuit diagrams
We're dedicated to introducing young students to the amazing world of quantum physics, technological innovation and design! We've been offering STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math) classes and creating educational materials for students of all ages for over 15 years. We're excited to share this course content with more students through Outschool.
Please bring a Squishy Circuits Lite dough-based electricity kit (or equivalent) to the class. This kit will allow us to build hands-on circuits in a safe and fun way. A Squishy Circuits Lite Kit can be purchased on Amazon (search "Squishy Circuits Lite Kit") for $15. This kit can be re-used many times, and the class includes instructions for ongoing circuit-building activities. Please note: the battery holder requires 4 AA batteries (not included in the kit). Other Squishy Circuits Kits (Standard Kit & Deluxe Kit) with more materials may also be purchased, but the additional materials are not required for the course. Other brands may also be substituted, as long as they include a battery pack, play dough and LEDs.
