P5 Electricity

In term 2 we did lots of learning on electricity. We learnt about electrical and non-electrical appliances. We compared these and realised that life would be more difficult and everyday tasks would be more time consuming without electricity.

We learned that electricity is a secondary energy source. We know that it can be made in different ways in power stations. Electricity then travels to smaller sub-stations before reaching our homes through cables.

We know that current electricity is dangerous and we should make sensible choices to protect ourselves from it. We can identify different hazards and what to do if we spot one.

We also looked at symbols that represent electrical components and put together our own circuits.

Some of us brought in working electricity models we made at home!
