Bright Sparks Electricity Day

Year 4 really enjoyed a whole day devoted to exploring electricity. Fran, from C-STEM, delivered an entertaining and interesting day and we all learnt a lot. We became electrical engineers, building different kinds of circuit using wire, batteries, bulbs and switches. We tested materials to see if they were insulators or conductors of electricity. We even tested Joshua to see if would conduct electricity (safely)!! We  learnt how to complete a drawing of a circuit using the correct symbols. We talked about how our lives are dependent on electricity and what we would do without it. We also found out how electricity is made and we talked about the future of electricity production with our limited resources. What a full day!
