Technical Summary

Overview

Helping to Support Teaching and Learning

Circuitry Essentials

These battery holders simplify circuit assembly for educational purposes, enhancing learning in series circuits for children.

Battery Compatibility

Ensure a consistent 1.5 volts output for various experiments with these holders, specifically designed to accommodate 1 AA battery.

Safety First

Designed with safety in mind, it's advised to utilise zinc chloride batteries, as they are less likely to cause high temperatures, offering a more secure experience.

Supervised Learning

Supervision by adults is recommended to ensure safe and effective usage, preventing any potential short-circuit mishaps during practical electricity experiments.

Curriculum Support

These holders shed light on circuits in Year 4 and Year 6 Science classes, and bolster Key Stage 2 Design and Technology by integrating electrical systems into pupil's designs.

1 x AA Battery Holders

Designed to hold a single AA battery, these holders deliver a 1.5 volts output.

Overview

  • Enabling hands-on learning about electricity, these battery holders are crucial for safe, supervised classroom experiments. They allow children to explore electrical circuits, understanding how batteries power up a circuit.

  • Year 4 science lessons come to life as pupils learn about simple series circuits, identifying components that light up a lamp. Moving onto Year 6, the focus shifts towards understanding how variations in components affect circuit functions. These lessons form a practical foundation in electrical concepts.

  • Key Stage 2 Design and Technology projects are enriched as pupils learn to incorporate electrical systems, including series circuits, into their designs. This not only aligns with the curriculum but also sparks interest in science and technology.

Supports the National Curriculum

Science, Year 4, Electricity

Identify whether or not a lamp will light in a simple series circuit, based on whether or not the lamp is part of a complete loop with a battery.

Science, Year 4, Electricity

Construct a simple series electrical circuit, identifying and naming its basic parts, including cells, wires, bulbs, switches and buzzers.

Science, Year 6, Electricity

Associate the brightness of a lamp or the volume of a buzzer with the number and voltage of cells used in the circuit.
