Lesson 2 on Electricity.

Some suggested Easter holiday activites:

Create a glitter volcano For this fun and colourful experiment, you’ll need a vase, baking soda, vinegar, food colouring, glitter and a pan to contain the mess. When all the ingredients are combined, you’ll create a sparkly explosion which is sure to delight little ones. Full instructions on how to conduct this experiment can be found on the link.

Make your own lava lamp You can teach kids about the density of oil and water with this DIY lava lamp, which only requires a few simple ingredients - water, a plastic bottle, oil, food colouring and aspirin, or any tablets that fizz up. You can find detailed instructions on how to build it at the link

Write with invisible ink Role-play as spies with this easy invisible ink experiment. All you’ll need is a cotton swab, a piece of paper, a heat source (like a lamp or electric stove) and milk or lemon. After writing with the ‘ink’, kids will be able to see their secret messages appear when placed next to a heat source.

Create your own silly putty By combining just two ingredients - washing up liquid and cornflour - you can make your own silly putty to keep kids entertained. You can find full instructions on how to do this on the link.

Lesson 1 for Science :

Mrs Green and Mrs Harvey have had a look at Summer term's topic and we are learning about Electricity. We thought it would be a good idea for you to do some research on the topic before hand. We would like you to create a non-chronological report on Electricity. You could use headings like: 'Where did it all begin?', 'Why is electricity so important?', 'How do you make a circuit?' and 'What investigations can you do with electricity?. Below, you will find a range of resources to help you. Why not take a picture of your final piece and email it to your teachers?
