Finding out what conducts and what doesn’t !!!!!!!

Today the orange group have been finding out what conducts and what doesn’t.

(We only had to follow a diagram)

  1. First we cut the copper tape and stuck it down in a circuit formation.

2. Then we stuck down the wires and the battery.

3. We stuck down the light next to the copper tape.

4. We left a gap in the circuit.

5. Then we turned on the battery.

6. Then we found things to put on the gap to make the light glow up.  The wooden spoon, the Duplo and the ruler didn’t conduct electricity but the potato masher, the tin and the metal spoon did conduct electricity.

7.  We tried the buzzer, the fan and the beeper.  They all worked.   63784056523__903B98E4-C5CB-471C-92B1-33952D1088C7

Blogging Buddies in P3/2

Great excitement today as the children began to learn to write a blog post in Glow.

Qwerty keyboard skills were in use and the children were trying to use both hands to type to get logged on to the Chromebooks.

It was brilliant to see children buddy up with others to teach them how to blog, fantastic learning together! I am very proud!

The class created a spelling list this afternoon to help them edit the posts they are writing about adding conductors to circuits.

Such a lot of effort, everyone deserved  a brain break!
