Activity 1 NAME:

Electricians work with electrical power.

They install, test, and maintain wiring,
lighting systems, and fixtures in homes
and businesses.

Your parents have bought a new

set of lights that need to be
installed and have called your local
electrician , you have spoken to him
about what you know about
electrical circuits

Help the electrician build a circuit!

8. In groups of 4 , Demonstrate a simple electric circuit with an energy source (cell), switch,
conductor and a light bulb or buzzer. Sketch the circuit showing how to use component symbols. You
will now be required to build an electrical circuit.You will use the information as a guide. Each
learner draws the circuit using correct symbols for components.

6. Electricians should have a basic understanding of mathematics, including algebra, and good
problem-solving skills. Experienced electricians can work with architects and help design electrical
systems for new buildings. Electricians also work with alternative energy sources that turn wind or
sunlight into electricity.

Explain how students will be supported throughout this project

- Students will be supported throughout this project as they will answer questions
based on the electrical circuit and this will give them a feel of the career of an
electrician , they will be able to identify the main components and the main actions
and thereafter they will be presented with a group work activity with a link of how
they can make an electrical circuit.
