These boys show us a parallel circuit
We have been learning a lot about how electricity works.
We know that you need a closed circuit and a battery for electricity to flow. We can check if the electricity is flowing by putting a bulb or a buzzer into the circuit.
We did 3 experiments. The first was to check if an object is a conductor or an insulator. What are conductors and insulators?
Our second experiment was to investigate series and parallel circuits. Have a look at the pictures to tell the difference! How did the bulbs light in the series and parallel circuits?
This is a series circuit
The third thing we did was use facts that we learned about electricity to make a ‘Buzz-Off’ game. Have a look at us playing it!
Keep a steady hand!
The look of concentration!
