This product is a power point lesson about drawing schematic circuit diagrams connecting to the curriculum for grade 9 science.

After this lesson students will be able to:

- Understand how current and potential difference are measured

- Understand and be able to apply the mathematical relationship between current, potential difference and resistance

- Know the difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker

- Be able to recognize and know how to include ammeters and voltmeters in circuit diagrams

This lesson aligns with the standards of the Ontario curriculum specifically but can be used by any other school board or district easily.

Connection to Ontario curriculum:

Grade 9 (SNC1W)

D2.4 investigate the relationships between electric current, potential difference, and resistance in electrical circuits, and develop a mathematical model to represent the relationships

D2.5 apply a mathematical model to calculate electric current, potential difference, and resistance in real-world situations

D2.6 construct series and parallel circuits to compare electric current, potential difference, and resistance in both types of circuits
