Science with Mr. B

 

Today, we made an electrifying start to our new science topic by taking part in a wonderful workshop all about electricity. Mr. B showed us how static electricity is formed and explained how our bodies are filled with billions of electrons. We also made a human circuit to demonstrate how electrons jump to create a current of electricity.

 

Our main activity involved using a special circuit board to create a variety of circuits, which included making a motor move and lighting bulbs. Finally, we set up our own wire buzzer game by connecting crocodile clips to a battery and buzzer. We tried our best to keep a steady hand and beat the game! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Mr. B and we cannot wait to learn more about this shockingly good subject!
