I can assess the potential danger of electrical devices, by referring to the voltage and current rating (amperage) of the devices; and distinguish between safe and unsafe activities

I can distinguish between and provide examples of static and current electricity

I can identify electrical conductors and insulators, and compare the resistance of different materials to electric flow

I can use switches and resistors to control electrical flow, and predict the effects of these and other devices in given applications

I can describe the nature of electrical current using the hydro flow model

I can explain the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance using Ohm’s Law

I can measure voltages and amperages in circuits

I can draw and interpret circuit diagrams

I can identify similarities and differences between microelectronic circuits and circuits in a house
