This CPD resource for science teachers, looks at what works well and what is difficult, about teaching electricity at primary.
Rosemary Feasey, primary maths consultant, Tracy Stuart, Year 5 teacher and Anne Fitzpatrick, science co-ordinator at Ripple Primary school in Barking, discuss what worked well in the Tracy?s lesson on becoming an Apprentice Electrician.
They then discuss some of the difficulties teachers have in teaching electricity as well as talking about Personal Capabilities in Science, the skills that make scientists.
This video is part of the Lesson Planning Pack on electricity for KS2 science, which includes two lesson starters, one great lesson idea and a CPD discussion.
