This document summarizes a workshop for elementary teachers focused on hands-on learning about electricity concepts. The workshop was funded by a grant and presented by two professors. It included pre- and post-assessments, demonstrations of circuits and electricity topics, hands-on activities with materials like Snap Circuits kits, and discussions on implementing the new strategies and technologies in their own classrooms. The overall goal was to increase teachers' content knowledge of electricity and models of teaching that incorporate investigation, technology, and active learning.

Static and Current electricity Physics review
Electric charge Objects are made of atoms and those have positive and negative charges Objects can be 0 electrically neutral (zero charge) + positively charged, or - negatively charged Like charges repel Opposite charges attract Niels Bohr model of the atom electrons (-) are 2000x more massive than protons (+) Physics review
How do you charge an object? PHET Simulations Demo https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/balloons-and-static-electricity/latest/balloons-and-static-electricity_en.html CHARGING BY CONDUCTION (direct contact) 1) Rubbing materials together TRANSFERS ELECTRONS from the atoms of one object to the other object Example: the balloon acquires electron from the sweater when rubbed and becomes negatively charged 2) Touching a charged object to a neutral object makes them share charges equally Example: Touching negatively charged rod to neural metal sphere transfers half the extra electrons to the sphere Physics review
How do you charge an object? 3) CHARGING BY POLARIZATION (no contact!) Bringing a charged object close to a neutral object REDISTRIBUTES the ELECTRONS inside the neutral object. The neutral object is still electrically neutral. Example: charge a balloon by rubbing it on your hair and see how it sticks to the wall why? wall - - - + + + NOT touching! Physics review
Electricity Electricity = Charge flow Current is the flow of charge, pressured into motion by voltage and hampered by resistance. Physics review
Think about it. Walk and talk Why would charges flow? *whoever woke up earliest shares first
Draw the circuit diagram for this simple circuit in your notebook using the electrical symbols (slide 11) Compare with your neighbor; discuss differences Lets build some circuits!
Snap circuit kits Take some time to explore one of your kits You will each receive 5 kits to keep and use in your classroom.
