The Light Bulb Moment
In this lesson aimed at lower primary, children find out about the uses of light bulbs, other than providing light. Children work scientifically observing, comparing and contrasting the features of different light bulbs and sorting them into groups according to similarities and differences. They then work as ‘light detectives’ to identify a range of lights both inside and out of the classroom, thinking about how they are used.
