P6\/5 have been really excited this week learning about electricity. We discussed the different kinds of energy and where it comes from and we created posters showing forms of energy. We then created basic electric circuits. Pupils were then set a challenge to build a potato clock. All groups were successfully able to get an electrical charge which turned the clock on, although there wasn’t enough charge to make them work. Some pupils persevered and experimented with digging out the potato to make it more ‘juicy’ and others tried to coat the copper in different ways. Others challenged themselves to create the largest circuit of fans they could. The whole class became involved and one group managed to create a circuit involving one switch, 5 batteries and 25 fans!<\/p>\n
