• Construct a simple series electrical circuit, identifying and naming its basic parts, including cells, wires, bulbs, switches and buzzers.
• Science, Year 4, Electricity
• Identify whether or not a lamp will light in a simple series circuit, based on whether or not the lamp is part of a complete loop with a battery.
• Science, Year 6, Electricity
• Associate the brightness of a lamp or the volume of a buzzer with the number and voltage of cells used in the circuit.
• Science, Year 6, Electricity
• Compare and give reasons for variations in how components function, including the brightness of bulbs, the loudness of buzzers and the on/off position of switches.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 2, Technical Knowledge
• Understand and use electrical systems in their products (for example, series circuits incorporating switches, bulbs, buzzers and motors).
• Complete with all components for investigating electricity.
• Features batteries and holders, bulbs and holders, and multi core wire as components in circuits to support hands-on learning.
• Equipping children to explore electricity through hands-on activities, this kit includes essential elements like batteries with holders, bulbs with holders, and multi-core wire. It facilitates a tactile approach to understanding electrical components and their functions. Practical tasks offered by the kit illuminate basic electrical concepts in an engaging way.
• Aligned with the UK's Year 4 and Year 6 Science curriculum, the kit supports teaching the construction of series circuits and the function of cells in circuits. It also meets Key Stage 2 Design and Technology requirements, enabling pupils to integrate electrical components and systems into their projects. Through these activities, students are encouraged to think critically and solve problems.
Ready for a wide range of educational activities with 50 type C batteries included, this kit is a valuable instrument for cultivating an interest in STEM fields, setting the stage for future scientific and technological advancements.
