The purposes of this study were to justify a necessity of electricity and electron education, to examine one's contents flow in curriculum transition, to analyze vertical connection among elementary, middle, high schools, and to compare an electricity and electron education of a practical arts subject with that of a science subject.This study was carried out through literature review and contents analysis of related textbooks.An electricity and electron education in elementary schools was justified in the aspect of a close relationship with real life, a students' high interest, and a delicate connection with upper discipline.In the aspect of connection analysis, it was found that a connection degree between middle school and high school was very smooth, but connection degree between elementary school and middle school was not smooth. So it's necessary to revise and compensate the electricity and electron education contents in elementary school to keep pace with.Comparing a practical arts subject with a science subject, it was found that the overlap part between two subjects was not much, but there were a lot of parts to change judging from their characteristic. That is to say, 'making toys with electron or electricity' and 'making electric light' should be introduced in a practical arts subject rather than a science subject. Finally, it was recommend that more study to develop elementary schools' electricity and electron education contents have to be carried out systematically afterward.
