    Parallel Circuit

                     A parallel circuit is a circuit where parts are connected

                     in separate  paths.  Electricity  can flow through each
                     path at the same time.

                     For example, in a house, each light has its own path. If

                     one light goes out, the other lights still work.

                                                           CHALLENGE CHAIN
                      Use a battery, wires, bulb, wood and pencil to make a circuit. Connect the wood

                      between the wires and check if the bulb glows. Then connect the pencil instead of
                      wood and observe carefully which material allows electricity to pass.

                     BUILDING SIMPLE CIRCUIT

                     To build a simple circuit, the following components are needed:

                              Components                                          Exploration

                                                           It gives power to the bulb.
                                  Battery

                                                           It lights up when it gets power.

                                    Bulb

                                                           They carry electricity from the battery to the

                                   Wires                   bulb.
