Year 4 Investigate Electrical Circuits – 5th December 2018

Year 4 Investigate Electrical Circuits – 5th December 2018

In science, Year 4 have been investigating electrical circuits.

Two of the class created an outstanding circuit using 41 wires – the battery (cell) must have been really tired.
Right now we wouldn’t have light bulbs if it wasn’t for Thomas Edison and his team. Mrs Seeley’s wedding ring came in handy as we tried to find out whether it was gold or not…did it conduct electricity?
When Edison was creating the light bulb he once said, “I have not failed – I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
We used lots of equipment during the lesson. This included: light bulbs, wires and cells.
One message: Never Waste Electricity!
