How will you explain the below statement to a 5th class student?
"Electrical energy is caused by moving electric charges called electrons. The faster the charges move, the more electrical energy they carry."
[Start from the basics i.e., explain electrical energy and electric circuit]
_________
Do not answer this if you don't know to.

Electrical energy is a form of energy, which is due to the flow of electrons carrying charges (i.e flow of negative charges).
Electric circuit is a continuous closed path in which electric current flows.
Conventionally, the direction of current is opposite to the flow of electrons.. But we cannot say that current is the flow of positive charges.
Conventionally, the faster the electrons move, the faster the current flows.
Thus when we apply potential difference in the wire, we observe that the current flows faster. For example: During low voltage or potential difference, we can observe that the fan moves slower but at high voltage or potential difference, the fan moves faster.. Thus, we can say that the electrons also move faster.
