Being in year 6 is electrifying!

This half term, our science topic is electricity so this week we have been experimenting with making our own circuits. We used batteries and wires to make our bulbs light up and then we added a buzzer. It was very noisy but lots of fun! After that, we all made our own switch so that we could switch our bulbs and buzzers on and off. We had a great afternoon! Have a look at the pictures and videos below!

Our very noisy buzzers!

Making a tune with a buzzer!

A switch turning a bulb on and off!
