Oak Class started their unit of work about electricity by learning about and correcting matching the symbols used to the correct electrical circuit component. We revisited prior learning and discussed the difference between a good electrical conductor and a good electrical insulator. The children also offered examples of what these materials might be. Well done, Oak Class!
