Lesson Plan: Charges, Induction, and Conduction
Name: Jesus Barajas Date: 5/11/2016 Age/Grade Level: 9th-grade science
Subject: Physical Science Major Content: Electricity Lesson Length: 56 minutes
Targets
1. The students will understand what charges, conductors, insulators, and electric forces are.
Standards:
Science and Engineering: Constructing explanations
Construct and revise an explanation based on valid and reliable evidence obtained from a variety of sources (including students’ own investigation, models, theories, simulations, peer reviews).
AS.W.2: Write informative/explanatory texts to examine and convey complex ideas and information clearly and accurately the effective selection, organization, and analysis of content.

Why did the pieces of paper behave the way they did?
c. What type of charge did the plastic rod acquire as it was rubbed with hair or fur?
d. Is there an electric charge in the hair (or fur)?
4. Rub a balloon (or a plastic rod) with your hair (or with animal fur).
5. Touch the metallic sphere of an electroscope with the rubbed object for one second. Answer the following in your journal:
a. What happened to the electroscope leaves? Sketch what you observed.
b. What caused the leaves to behave that way?
6. Rub a balloon (or a plastic rod) with your hair (or with animal fur).
7. Bring the plastic rod or balloon near the metallic sphere—do not touch the sphere—, and answer the following in your journal:
a. What did you observe, and why do you think the leaves behaved the way they did? [Remainder of the period] The students will:
• Read through their textbook, pages 170 through 173 to answer questions 1b, 1c, and 1d.
• Apply what they read to answer each question.
• Discuss the questions as a class.
