Series Circuits

The Series Circuits Toolkit provides teachers with standards-based resources for designing lesson plans and units that pertain to such topics as equivalent resistance, electric potential difference, and current for the various devices wired into a series circuit. The Toolkit is supported by Lessons 4 of the Electric Circuits Chapter at The Physics Classroom Tutorial.

 


Each toolkit can be viewed in three different ways.

  1. Series Circuits - HTML Version of Complete Toolkit

    The HTML version of the complete toolkit contains all the resources with full descriptions and links to their location on the web. The complete toolkit also includes learning objectives and references the pertinent standards addressed by the resources.
     

  2. Series Circuits - PDF Version of Complete Toolkit

    The PDF version of the complete toolkit contains all the resources with full descriptions in a printer-friendly format. Learning objectives and relevant standards are also included in the PDF Version of the complete toolkit.
     

  3. Series Circuits - Toolkit To Go

    The Toolkit To Go is a 2-page PDF document that provides an abbreviated version of the complete toolkit. It contains as much information as could fit on two pages. Toolkits To Go can be photo-copied back-to-back, hole-punched, and filed in a teacher's folder or three-ring binder for future reference.
