Electrical Circuits and Components

Project Overview

This companion project teaches children about electrical circuits, their components and how they function. They recognise how voltage of cells affects the output of a circuit and record circuits using standard symbols.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy โ€“ Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express โ€“ to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.
