Electricity and Circuits

Current requires a complete conducting path. Switches open or close the path, and components transform electrical energy.

What to remember

  • A complete circuit is required for continuous current.
  • An open switch breaks the circuit.
  • Metals are often conductors.
  • Plastics are often insulators.
  • Electrical energy can transform to light, heat or movement.

Key words

circuit — complete electrical path
current — flow of electric charge
conductor — material allowing current readily
insulator — material resisting current
switch — component opening/closing a circuit
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 25 attempts on the same browser.

What this Year 6 / Grade 6 science drill practises
