ELECTRICITY IDEA 1 - WHAT DO WE ALREADY KNOW?

Here is the first in a new series of videos covering the topic of Electricity. These ideas are to be used alongside work in exercise books and are not to be followed as a scheme of work. However, there are ideas for how technology can be used to enhance science lessons linked to objectives in Year 4 and 6.

This first idea looks at sharing what we already know and what prior knowledge children are bringing to this topic.
