Outcomes

  • Movement of electrons causes insulators to gain electrostatic charge
  • Electrostatic charges can apply forces on one another

Specification References

  • 2.19 identify common materials which are electrical conductors or insulators including metals and plastics
  • 2.20 recall that insulating materials can be charged by friction
  • 2.21 explain that psoitive and negative elecrostatic charges are produced on materials by the loss or gain of electrons
  • 2.22 recall that there are forces of attraction between unlike charges and forces of repulsion between like charges

Starter

  • Structure of an atom recap – get pupils to label each part of the atom

Main Body of Lesson
