Electricity

We are currently learning about electricity in Science.


We have been learning about circuits and how they work. We tested different circuits to see if the bulb would light up, and then observed what happened if we added another battery or light bulb.


Today, we investigated whether different materials were conductors or insulators of electricity.
A conductor is something that allows the electric current to travel through it. An insulator does not allow the current to flow through it.


We tested these materials:
  • wood
  • plastic
  • metal
  • aluminium foil
  • natural blue stone


Which material(s) do you think are conductors of electricity?
