Provide "acknowledged body of knowledge" related to the concept. Emphasize the most significant aspects of the concept in an organized, organic manner. Present information sequentially so students see continuity. Draw attention to important, discrete details; don't swamp students with myriad facts.

Electricity and Flowing Electron Relationship to Magnetism

Objective: Students will observe that current electricity is a pathway of continuously flowing electrons. Students will observe a relationship between electricity and magnetism.
Activity: Small groups of students are given a bulb, a battery, and two wires. The group works to light the bulb by creating a continuous pathway. Groups will draw a diagram of their successful connection. Students can experiment to add a switch to their circuit. Teacher diagrams and demonstrates series, parallel, complete, and incomplete circuits. Bulletin board and student text supply more detailed information on electricity and its relationship to magnetism.
Evaluation: Observation of group progress and individual diagrams.
