Year 6 explored the exciting world of Electrical Circuits this week and refreshed their learning and knowledge from Year 4 before moving onto understanding, building from, and drawing circuit diagrams using symbols for a range of components.

Year 6's top tips for drawing circuit diagrams:

1. Use a ruler to draw straight lines for the wires.

2. Draw the symbols for the components first and then connect them together with wires.

3. Check that your symbols are connected to the wires and are the correct way around- especially cells and batteries or your circuit won't work!
