After building on our knowledge of electricity and circuits in science, we then embarked on a design and make task in small groups. Our aim was to build a lighthouse that was stable and freestanding. It must also include a working light with a switch ensuring it could be switched on and off at ay time. To begin, groups worked together to discuss their approach to the task and recorded the materials needed to begin, the steps involved and a…

In the month of November we have been exploring the theme of electricity in Science. We worked in small groups to create a working light circuit. We used a bulb, two wires and a battery for this. We then added various objects to the circuit such as a paper clip, a crayon and a thumbtack. We found out that materials that electricity can flow through, e.g. a paperclip, are called conductors and those that electricity does not flow through, e.g….
