This resource was created for a Year 10 class, who were beginning to learn about electronics, and the basics of electronics. It takes them through the various components and has a worksheet as well.
These resources are offered in addition to the FREE worksheets and access to the video at https://youtu.be/fMFC1SaHeHk.
PPT LOs:
Recall some electrical components, consider how electronics function as a systems, learn about some Input, Process and Output devices and how they’re used in the real world.
Please also see my latest electronic and mechanical project which I designed as a mini project for my year 10 group but could also but suitable as a KS3 rotation:

Resources to support work on electronics. Information on diodes, resistors and the breadboard. A circuit diagram, photo and description of how to use a flashing LED to control 2 standard LEDs in a flashing circuit.
A fun, no preparation required resource for Design and Technology. These A5 activities make great starters and plenaries as well as a means of checking progress made during a lesson. Once completed they can be stuck into the student's book for future reference. Lots more are available, just click onto my shop.

This is an electronic systems GCSE lesson covering the following, including tasks:
Circuit components
Graphical conventions for communicating ideas
Working with systems
Principles of a control system - input, processes, output
Digital and analogue signals
Designed for IB Design Technology, but useful for GCSE Design Technology Systems and Control, Electronics, A Level Electronics.
Worksheets to revise the basics of electricity. definitions, units, Ohm's law, resistance, resistivity, capacitors, alternating current, power...
Lesson starter including a simple introduction to systems diagrams.
26 slides with component images and names. Students to use traffic light cards to indicate if they think the component is an Input, a Process or and Output component.
This lesson works well as a stand alone starter, or alternatively use this along with my component cards lesson where students use the information provided to select appropriate components to complete various systems diagrams.
