P5/4 has been learning about electricity this term.

We have learned that electricity is made of atoms and that atoms are made up of protons (+ charge), electrons (- charge) and neutrons which have a neutral charge.  We made our own atoms from marshmallows.  Have a look.

We have also been learning about static electricity and participated in experiments to investigate what can cause it.

We have also learned about the many inventors and scientists who helped to invent electricity and the electrical gadgets we have today.  We have learned how they persevered and never gave up and we are building resilience in this area as well.  This was a great project to help pupils learn that you have to make a lot of mistakes in order to learn!

Happy Easter from P5/4!
