A. ENGAGE

In the previous lesson, you have learned that electric circuit has four
parts: a source, light, bulb, wires and switch.
- Electricity does not flow in an open circuit
Now, what is open circuit class?
because there is a gap or no complete path.

- the path of electricity is complete, allowing

Very good! How about closed circuit?
electricity to flow through it.

It occurs when two bare wires come into contact and electricity past
through an unintended path?
- Short circuit ma'am

FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.

TENACERISS - Is the measure of how difficult it is for electricity to flow

through a material?
-RESISTANCE
TRUCERN- the flow of electricity through a conductor like a wire?
- CURRENT
TAGEVOL- is the pressure or force that pushes electric charges (like -VOLTAGE
electrons) through a conductor such as a wire?

Based on the activity, what do you think is our lesson for today class?

Very good!
- Series and parallel circuit ma'am

Today, we will be discussing about the new topic. At the end of the
lesson, you will be able to: Differentiate series and parallel circuit, Cite
Advantages and Disadvantages of series and parallel circuits; and
Construct a series and parallel circuit.
 - yes ma'am
Are you ready class?

B. EXPLAIN
When you hear the word electricity, what comes to your mind?

Anyone from the class?

- Pupils response

Very good! The word “electricity” is derived from the Greek word
“elektron” which means “ amber”. Electricity is thought to have been
discovered in Ancient Greece when someone rubbed a piece of amber
and picked it up light materials such as feathers and hair. This is possible
because of the fact that friction can generate electricity.

Do you know what friction is class?

- No ma’am

Friction is the force that opposes the motion of objects sliding or moving
against each other when they are in contact. Meaning it is a force that
tries to stop things from sliding or moving smoothly against each other.

There are two kinds of electricity class. The Static electricity and
Current electricity.

So Static Electricity is produced when electrical charges build up on the

surface of a material, usually as a result of friction or rubbing off
materials together.

For example: Rubbing your ballpoint pen against your hair. So the
friction between the pen and your hair can cause the transfer of
electrons. This can result in the pen attracting small pieces of paper.

Next is the electricity produced by the continues flow of electrons is

known as Current Electricity.

For example: The flow of electrons through a wire in an electric circuit.

So current electricity is made up of moving electrons that flow through

electrical wires connected to lights, machines, or appliances to make
these devices work.

Current electricity is the energy that we often use in many activities

right class? It flows through a complete circuit.

What is a electric circuit again class? - Electric circuit is composed of interconnected

components such as Load, power source,
switch and connectors/ conductor.

Very good class! Electric circuit is a closed- loop, giving a return path for
the current. So, We have two types of circuits class, namely Series
Circuit and Parallel circuit.

Do you have any idea what is series circuit? - None ma’am

A series circuit class is a circuit that allows electric current to flow

through a single path. The available electric current flows through each
load but there is only one complete path.
As you can see class, the bulbs that are connected one after the other in
one chain is called series circuit. So when one bulb is loosened or
busted, all the other bulbs in the circuit will not light any more.

The loosened or busted bulb breaks or opens the pathway, so electricity

cannot flow. Meaning the circuit is open. So, defective bulb has to
replaced, or the loose bulb should be screwed tight for the current to
flow again.

For the devices in a series circuit to work, each device must work. If one
goes out, they all go out.

Did you understand class?

- yes ma'am

If you add another bulb to a circuit that has 2 bulbs, what do you think
will happen? Does the bulbs shine brighter?

Class the more work (resistance) a series circuit does, the more its - Answer may vary
current decrease. This means that, as you add more resistance to a
circuit, like a few bulbs or resistors, at that point the more work for your
power source or battery. So, if you add more bulbs to a circuit, all bulbs
will get equally dim since adding more resistance decreases the current
since our battery has more work to do.

Advantages and Disadvantages of a Series Circuit

ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

 More power source (ex.  Only one pathway for an

Batteries/ dry cells) can be electric current to flow
added to increase the through
voltages.  When one bulb burns out,
 Does not require lots wiring the other bulbs will not
connections function any more.
 Increasing the number of
loads, decreases the current
that passes through each
bulb

Lets move on to parallel circuit class. What do we mean by parallel

circuit?

A parallel circuit contains two or more paths for an electric current to

flow through. The electrical devices are connected in a branched
manner making each one independent from all other connections in the
circuit.
When we say parallel it has a light bulbs with different loops. Thus, each
bulb is a part of different circuit. When one bulb is loosened, taken or
burn out, the other bulbs still light up.

A break in one pathway does not make all the lights go out because
electricity can still flow through the other way. Unlike in series circuit
class, if you add more bulbs it does not dim the light of the bulbs.

In parallel circuit, when you add more resistors, the total current
increases while the over all resistance decreases. Meaning, when you
add more bulbs to the circuit, you'll need to draw more current to
power them all.

if you turn off one bulb, what would happen if you used series circuit in
your home class?

Very good! All bulbs will turned off since there is only 1 path for
electricity. Thus, parallel circuit is the appropriate circuit for homes.
Because if you turn off one of them, the others will still function.

Did you get it class?

These are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Parallel Circuit

ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
- all bulbs will be turned off ma'am because
there is only one path of electricity.
 Two or more pathways for  Requires many wiring
an electric current to flow connections
through
 When one bulb burns out,
the other bulbs will continue
to glow
 Individual devices can be - yes ma'am
controlled
