- Describe the interactions (i.e., repel, attract) of like and unlike charges (i.e., magnetic, static electric, electrical)
- Diagram and identify a complete electric circuit by using a source (battery), means of transfer (wires), and receiver (resistance bulbs, motors, fans)
- Observe and describe the evidence of energy transfer in a closed series circuit
- Describe the effects of resistance (number of receivers), amount of voltage (number of energy sources), and kind of transfer materials on the current being transferred through a circuit (e.g., brightness of light, speed of motor)
- Classify materials as conductors or insulators of electricity when placed within a circuit (e.g., wood, pencil lead, plastic, glass, aluminum foil, lemon juice, air, water)
- Diagram and distinguish between complete series and parallel circuits
- Identify advantages and disadvantages of series and parallel circuits
