Electricity Workbook (Grade 9 Ontario Science SNC1W)

This workbook contains Strand D: Principles and Applications of Electricity worksheets for the new 2022 de-streamed Grade 9 Ontario Science curriculum (SNC1W). This workbook contains informational texts, thinking questions, science investigations, experiments, and a culminating unit test. 

Students will demonstrate an understanding of the nature of electric charges, including properties of static and current electricity. Topics covered include types of energy, static and current electricity, electrical materials (conductors, resistors, and insulators), series and parallel circuits, voltage and current, Ohm's law, Watt's law, electricity usage, and conservation of energy.

Interactive, hands-on activities are explained, with follow-up worksheets included. There is a variety of readings, long and short answer questions, and creative writing activities included to create a varied workbook suitable for many learning styles.

To support assessment practices, Ontario curriculum expectations (Strand A and D) are clearly identified on each page. A quiz is included at the end of the workbook.

This workbook includes:

• 66-page Principles and Applications of Electricity Workbook (B&W and Colour)
• 66-page Principles and Applications of Electricity ANSWER KEY
• TpT Easel Activity - This tool allows students to complete workbook pages digitally, with no printing necessary. New to using Easel by TpT? Check out this guide.
