In Science, we have developed our understanding of electricity.

We started our investigation by finding out the difference between mains powered and battery powered appliances and those that run on both. We learned new vocabulary as we found out what components (parts) we need to make a circuit and we cleverly matched then with their correct symbols. The fun part was making a circuit and watching the bulb light up. It was a bit tricky attaching the wires using the crocodile clips but we were super patient and got so much better with practice. We discovered that a bulb needs a circuit and a source of energy to light up and also a buzzer to buzz. What a delight and sense of pride when we heard our buzzers ‘buzzing’! We were so good at making a circuit that we even included a switch to turn our light and buzzer off and on.

We were all ‘buzzing’ with our science investigation!
