My husband, Rob, teaches Physics. He uses Snap Circuits we bought from Good Will online. (There are usually several listings for Snap Circuits.) Here is a round-up of lessons ideas for electricity with Snap Circuits. First is Snap Circuit Bingo in the curriculum guide from the Ripken Foundation STEM Center. Next is the Snap Circuit manual with the symbols and project ideas. Rob has the kids make different circuits to demonstrate in class. This slideshow has good diagrams to measure specific Snap Circuit projects. (See screenshot below.) Let your kids use the manual to assemble three projects from the kit. Ask them to identify whether the circuit is series or parallel. Finally, ask the kids to identify the parts in the circuit. Bonus points for drawing a circuit diagram with the symbols.
