Electricity and Magnetism: Current Electricity
electricity is the flow of electrons. To move from one place to another, current electricity needs what is called a “complete circuit.” The circuit is made up of a source of electrons, a path for the electrons to travel along, and a device to use the electricity.

This program takes a look at the watery world of creatures visible only by using a microscope. Students learn about the bacteria, Protists, microscopic animals, and fungi that can be encountered in a single drop of water. Students learn how the members of aquatic communities of organisms each contribute something to create a perfectly balanced ecosystem.

Video - Introducing the Cell

Introducing the Cell
"All living things are alike in fundamental ways. One way is how they are all composed of cells. In this video, students will understand that the cells are the basic unit of life, be able to name and describe several single-celled organisms, be able to name basic cell parts, be able to describe the differences between animal and plant cells, and will learn that similar cells group together to form tissue."
