ELECTRICITY

Circuits

On Monday we looked at the components required to make up an electrical circuit. 

We learnt about batteries, bulbs, motors, buzzers, switches and cables.

                 

We looked at how these all connected together and how the power made each component act (light up, make a noise, spin)

We also looked at how to draw circuits using the correct symbols to represent each item.

On Tuesday, during our hall time, we made a human circuit to show what happens in a real electrical circuit.  We completed a circuit with a light bulb,

 a spinning motor,

and a burglar alarm!

Can you spot the switch in our circuit?
Can you spot the battery?
