Lesson Two – Repairing Circuits
This science teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to identify and record some of the different ways of repairing broken circuits by changing and adding a range of electrical components.
The class can practise using the correct symbols when recording some different circuits that can be used to power electrical devices such as bulbs, motors and buzzers.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record some of the different ways of repairing broken circuits by changing and adding a range of electrical components
Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify symbols that can be used for electrical components in circuit diagrams and a set of cards to select and record different ways of correcting faults in a range of electrical circuits with different components.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore different ways of repairing broken circuits by changing and adding electrical components.
This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to devise and construct different electrical circuits that can be used to control electrical devices for a range of specific functions in a family home. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
-
Ordering and Changing
Explore and record how to order three digit numbers by the place value of their digits and how the digits in a number change their numerical values when finding ten and one hundred more or less
-
Changing Hundreds
Explore and record the matching number sums that are one hundred more and less than different three digit numbers to show changes to the place values of their numerical digits
-
Digit Changes
Identify and record the matching number sums that are ten less than different three digit numbers by illustrating changes to the values of their hundreds, tens and ones digits
-
Changing Numbers
Identify and record number sums that are ten more than different three digit numbers using abacus diagrams to model their changing values
