Katrina –
A superb resource. The lemon battery activity went down a storm and we even collaborated to make a huge battery to see just how much power could be generated.
Teacher notes are very easy to follow and full of interesting suggestions . Definitely worth reading in advance and checking out the online links as well.
The electric art kit is quite fiddly and definitely needs some adult help but is very effective and a good way to revise circuits .
The car is also quite fiddly so this is very much for Y5/6 unless you have a lot of helpers. I’ve used as an after school club activity and the children have been so engaged that we have extended each activity to make best use of all the resources. Everything provided is of good quality and gives children a finished product to be proud of A particularly great resource is the battery packs with easy to clip onto terminals! A revolution! Made completing circuits so much easier. So useful to have everything together ready to go and the addition of prizes is s neat touch as well. Really cannot fault this box and am so pleased that so much can be reused. Highly recommended
