magnetism and current flow
These animations to try to show the right hand rule for relating current, flow, magnetic field direction and moving charge. This topic is more for AP physics since it includes lenzs law but a pretty good start demonstrated basic magnetism.

Simple magnet demonstration
A simple animation of paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials which shows why some materials can be magnetized but are not. They can become magnetized if possible. It also helps to explain why magnetic direction is maintained when the magnet is broken.
Electroscope
This one is designed to show induction and charging effect of an electroscope. I use PVC and a rabbit so I only get negative charge induction and charge but at least it shows the charges which are otherwise invisible.
electrostatic precipitator
One of the most common uses of electrostatic fields is the precipitator. It can collect dust particles in even high flow environments such as coal burning power plants. Turn on charge grid and discuss the effect of the field on the charge
