Lesson Six – Testing Conductivity
This science teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to investigate and test a range of different materials to identify which are the most effective electrical conductors or insulators.
The class can identify and record materials that have a high and low resistance to the flow of electricity as part of a circuit.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to investigate and test a range of different materials to identify which are the most effective electrical conductors or insulators
Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to explain how to build and record electrical circuits using different components and materials and differentiated worksheets to plan and perform a test to identify materials that are the most effective electrical conductors.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to test a range of different materials to identify the most effective electrical conductors.
This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to investigate and test the properties of different types of materials including durability, opacity, strength and conductivity. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
