NOTE: We would like to correct an error in this video. Birds do not get electrocuted when resting on power lines because there is no path to ground. Electricity has to flow from a place of high potential to low potential to electrocute. If a bird were to touch the line and some grounded metal of some kind, they could be shocked.
Hello Teachers and Parents! In this video we will learn all about electricity. Your student(s) will learn about lightning, power plants, Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC). We even talk about when electricity was discovered and go over topics like conductors and insulators. By the time you are done watching this video your child will have a much better understanding of what electricity is, where it comes from, and the amazing things it can do.
We know that electricity can be a tricky topic to cover so throughout the video we provide really good examples and break down the complex ideas. We also have a complete lesson plan full of worksheets and activities that will help your student practice what they are learning. You can download for free here: learnbright.org/lessons/scien...
