Using a variety of different scenarios, the demonstration teaches children about the path of electricity and how to stay out of that path.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>PowerTown is an electrical safety program for fourth graders; however, we can adjust the material for any age group including adults.<\/li>\n<li>PowerTown uses a model to demonstrate real-life scenarios involving electricity and explain how to stay safe in these situations.<\/li>\n<li>PowerTown is free and can be arranged to come to your classroom.<\/li>\n<li>We will bring everything we need to engage the class in an active demonstration of electrical safety.
