We asked our Year 2 class to explore what items they have at home that use electricity and to report back with either a written list or photographs. 

Activity description

 Use your powers of detection and observation to spot all the items that use electricity in your house. 
 
Check every room in your house to spot where energy is being used. Use our attached checklist to record what you find.

Hint: if it lights up, makes a noise, or produces heat, it may use electricity.
