Circuits and Lighthouses

On October 24th, 2007, Room 4 and Room 5 got together for a session on Electricity. First of all we talked about the sun and the moon, and night and day.

After that we talked about staying safe with electricity (plugs, kites, wires etc.).
Next teacher gave every pair of students a bulb, a battery and two wires and we had to make a circuit to get the bulb lighting. That wasn't too hard, but then teacher took away one wire and we had to get the bulb lighting.

When we were good at this we made our own lighthouses out of kitchen rolls, bulbs, bulb holders, batteries, wires and yoghurt pots. We are very proud of our lighthouses
