QUIZ
SHOW.
TEACHER
We
are going to do a QUIZ SHOW about Electricity.
We
will divide the class in three groups and they will try to find out
the unknown words in the text. Group 1 and 2 have a text without some
words, and they must ask questions to each
other to find out the missing word. Group 3, without
text, only listen and try to guess the word that the others groups
are talking about.
Groups
1, 2 and 3 win points when they discover the word that is being
discussed.
Only
when the word is found out by group 3, the group which is answering
the question wins points too.
Group
C is formed by students with higher level in English. The main reason
why the group 3 don’t have the text is to motivate the students of
others group to give a good explanation to the opponent group.
Each
question will be discussed no more than 3 minutes.
The
Word never will be talked loudly.
TEXT
Current,
potential difference and voltage
You
need to know how to measure the current that flows
through a component in a circuit. You also need to know how to
measure the potential difference across a component in a
circuit and the voltage in a point.
Current
A
current flows when an electric charge moves around a circuit,
measured as the rate of flow of charge. No current can flow if the
circuit is broken, for example, when a switch is open.
Measuring
current
current
is measured in amperes- often abbreviated to A
The
current flowing through a component in a circuit is measured using
an ammeter
the
ammeter must be connected in series with the component.
Potential
difference and voltage
A
potential difference and voltage, across an electrical component is
needed to make a current flow through it. Voltage is the electrical
pressure that gives a measure to the energy transferred. Cells or
batteries often provide the potential difference needed.
Measuring
potential difference
Potential
difference and the voltage is measured in volts, - often
abbreviated to V
Potential
difference across a component in a circuit is measured using a
voltmeter
The
voltmeter must be connected in parallel with the component.
GROUP
A
1)
Read the text about electricity.
What kind of information is missing?
2)
Work with your partner / group and write questions
about the missing information.
Example:
1) How can I measure the voltage?
3)
Work with a partner from group B, asking and
answering questions
4)
When you finish, check your texts to see if they
are the same.
