Let there be light

simple circuits

Our budding young scientists busy at work. We introduced simple circuits using a battery, wire and a light bulb. Grade 3 learners were given the opportunity to investigate current electricity by constructing simple circuits to bring about light. Children now understand the basics of electric circuits (i.e. need a source of electricity , conducting wires and a complete circuit) .THEN THERE WAS LIGHT!!!This was educational, safe and fun.

The conclusion- The next time there is a power failure they can create temporary light by making an electric circuit using the battery, wires and a bulb. Arrange the circuit so that the bulb is at the top of the tube and the battery at the bottom.
