Dear Parents or Guardians,


Warm Greetings from S.I.S!!!
Welcome to an exciting journey into the world of science! In this project , we
will explore the wonders of Simple electric circuits. As you know, science
projects help students learn better, motivate students to gain knowledge
through experiments, and give students the chance to apply skills they learn
at school in real-world situations.
Our project is about Electricity and the Working model of the Simple circuit in
science. All the needed materials will be kindly provided by you.
Here are some of the materials you can use for this project:
Battery, Battery holder, wires, light bulb, light bulb holder, sketch pens, foam
board.
Be creative!!!
Instructions about the project and pictures are attached to this, which you will
find useful in making this project.
A rubric will be attached to this letter to show you how your child’s project will
be assessed.
The due date is 20 th October 2023
Thank you for your Cooperation!!!

SCIENCE PROJECT- Semester 1

GRADE:3 Date:29th sept,2023


TITLE: SIMPLE ELECTRIC CIRCUIT Marks: 10

Working Model of Simple Electric Circuit

Video for reference: https://youtu.be/9sKUmuEl2R4?feature=shared

Materials Required: Foam Board, Markers, Battery ,Battery Holder,


Light bulb, Bulb holder, Wires .
Do it under adult supervision

Aim: The purpose of this project is to construct, test, and


demonstrate a simple electrical circuit.
A simple circuit consists of:

• a current or energy source like a battery,


• conductors which are often wires, but we have a few
experiments that use innovative materials as conductors,
• a load which could be an LED light bulb or a buzzer or a
fan.
• Procedure:
1. To build a simple circuit, you will need a power source, 2
wires, a light bulb, and a light bulb holder. A power source can
be any type of battery or battery pack. All these materials can
be found at your local Hardware store.

Note: when using a light bulb, find one that is around 15-25
volts so a single battery can power them.
To simplify the wire attachment process, use a battery snap
with wires pre-attached and a 9-volt battery pack.

2. Stripe the ends of the insulated wires: In order for the circuit
to work properly, the wires need to be totally exposed so you
must strip the ends. Using wire strippers, remove about 1 inch
(2.5 cm) of the insulation from the ends of each wire.
Note: If you don’t have wire strippers, you can carefully use
scissors to cut off the insulation.
Be careful not to cut all the way through the wire.

3. Install batteries into the battery pack: Depending on the type


of batteries you are using, you may be able to skip this step. If
you are using multiple batteries, you will need a power pack
to hold the batteries. Push each battery in by the side taking
care to put positive and negative ends in the correct
orientation.
4. Attach your wires to the battery pack. Attach the end of the wires
to one side of the battery, making sure the wire is in contact with
the metal of the battery. Repeat with the other of the battery.
Note: Use caution while connecting the battery.Do not touch the
ends of the wire directly with your bare hands.
5. Fasten the other end of the wire to the metal screw of the
bulb holder. Take the exposed metal end of each wire and
bend it into a U-shape. Loosen each screw on the light bulb
holder just enough to slip the U-shape. Loosen each screw on
the light bulb holder just to slip the U-shape of the wire
around the screw. Each wire will be attached to its own screw.
Tighten the screw, ensuring that the metal of the wire
remains in contact with the crew.
6. Test your circuit: Screw the light bulb into its holder until it is
tight. If your circuit is hooked properly, the bulb should light
up when fully screwed into its socket.
7. Light bulbs can heat up very quickly so be careful when
installing and removing the bulb.
8. If the bulb doesn’t click make sure the wires are connected
properly.
Take a foam board, glue all the materials except the wires, and label
the parts neatly. You also be creative in your own unique way.
You can also make a simple circuit by attaching a switch to it. refer
to the video for the same.
Below you can see some pictures for your reference!!!
