1. Electricity is a flow of electrons.
What is electricity?
Electricity is a flow of electrons.
HOW SHOCKING!

2. How do we get the electrons to flow?
The electrons will “flow” if they have a path to follow.
How about this copper wire?!

3. I still don’t really get it. Can you show me?
Sure! That’s my job!

4. And what were you saying about copper wire???

5. The copper wire is like a highway for the current to flow along.

6. Can you see the wires? The electrons come out of the battery and flow through the wires (like a highway) to the bulb. Cool, huh?!

7. Would you like to make an electric circuit to show your parents?
