  • Kia ora Year 9s,

    We are in Level 4 lockdown for Weeks 5 and 6. Continue your learning at home so you don't fall behind. Sometimes it's easier to buddy up with a friend so you can help and motivate each other to complete the learning!

    We will be EXPLORING the nature of electricity  and FOCUSING on the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance

    Success Criteria:

    Describe the difference between static electricity and current electricity
    Give examples of conductors and insulators
    Describe and explain voltage, current, and resistance
    Apply ohm's law to find voltage, resistance, and current

    Explain the nature of static electricity
    Explain to proportional relationship in Ohm’s Law
    Follow instructions and use a PHET simulation

    Activities:

    1. EP- Electricity revision

    2. EP- Introduction to electricity- voltage, resistance, and current

    3. Assignment- Ohm's law worksheet

    4. Brainpop + activities on Electricity basics

    5. Brainpop + activities on Static Electricity

    6. Assignment - PHET simulation on static electricity

    7. Assignment - PHET simulation on Ohm's Law
