We have been learning about Electrical Circuits in Science. We explored how a circuit worked through videos and experiments. We even created a human circuit by having everyone in the class join hands. \ud83e\udd1d The magic rod we had lit up and beeped showing that our circuit was complete. P7 have been supporting us in our learning and on the day they came to visit, we tried the circuit again with 42 children holding hands and the rod still lit up! It was very exciting! \ud83d\udca1<\/p>\n

We have been building and drawing circuits. We needed our battery to be in the circuit and all of the electrons had to pass on the current and not let the current break. We have been exploring jobs connected to electricity and we have experienced being energy surveyors, exploring how electricity is used in Cross Arthurlie as well as electricians who can spot a fault in a circuit.<\/p>\n

P7 came to visit after we had a few weeks of experience with building circuits with lights, switches, buzzers and motors. They taught us how to build a Scribblebot – a motor-powered moving machine that creates patterns on paper. Groups worked very well together, listening to instructions, gathering materials and communicating clearly.<\/p>\n

L was tinkering away in the tuff tray exploring what the inside of a computer looked like. We explored insulators and conductors and could identify examples of these from the components of a computer.<\/p>\n

F was inspired by a P7 to begin exploring solar panels. He managed to build a circuit powered by a renewable source of energy (the sun) that made a light come on and a motor move! In the end, he built a fan that helped us to cool down on a particularly warm Tuesday! Thanks F! \u2600\ufe0f<\/p>\n

Primary 4.2 were clocking in at work as they became energy surveyors around Cross Arthurlie. We explored how electricity was being used around the school: to produce heat, light, sound or movement.\u00a0 Mrs Denny even let us ring the bell using the special button!<\/p>\n
