This term's Science focus is on ELECTRICITY
We will be considering how circuits work, how they are arranged and how we can make simple and then more advanced versions. We will explore the uses of conductors and insulators in the management of electricity and test out a range of materials to see which ones fall into which categories. We will use ( and construct) switches and design circuits for specific purposes.
