The children have been covering a number of Curricular areas in their latest project, Science, Technology and Creativity are to name but a few.
The children had to design a luxury apartment with at least two rooms with two pieces of furniture . One room had to include a series circuit with two lights and the other room had to include a parallel circuit. They also had to consider how to keep the wires from showing in the rooms.
We used an energy ball to test whether humans are conductors. When you touch the two metal strips on the ball your hand becomes part of an electric circuit. We made a whole class circuit by holding hands. It made the ball light up. When someone broke the circle, the light went off.
