Circuits
Electricity is the flow of electric charges.
Charge is a property of matter and can be positive or negative.
Charges that move are most often electrons from an atom.
A circuit is a closed loop of conducting material that lets the charges flow through it.

Circuit Connections
The wires in a circuit carry the electric current.
The circuit has to be complete to allow electricity to travel.
A circuit also needs something to provide a force to push the charge along the wires - this is what a battery does.
5
Circuit Symbols
Circuit symbols are used in circuit diagrams to show how a circuit is connected together.
Straight lines are used to show the wires.

Drawing Circuits
This circuit shows a battery, bulb and switch.
To draw a circuit you start with the symbols and then draw straight lines to connect them.
15
Open Ended
Why do you have to put batteries in the right way round in a remote?
16
Connecting Batteries
Batteries provide the force to push charge round the circuit.
They push the charge from the negative end and it returns to the positive end.
