Can you make a circuit?
We were real live wires in topic today !
Our topic of 'Our electric world' saw children constructing their own circuits today. With the components of wires, bulb and battery, the children were tasked with finding a way of making the bulb light up. Team Bullard figured out that in order for the bulb to light up they needed to make sure the circuit was complete, meaning a wire would need to go to the battery and another back to the bulb.
They then drew the completed circuit complete with representations of bulb, cell and wire in their books and labelled the different components. Adults... can you test your children on what these symbols mean?
The children will be experimenting more with circuits and electricity in the next few days and weeks !
