What pupils learn
Conductors and insulators: what the words mean
Metals conduct, and copper is inside wires
Insulators: plastic, rubber, wood, glass and air
Testing materials with a tester circuit, as a fair test
All metals conduct, but paint and plastic covers can stop electricity
Water, mains electricity and staying safe
Both together: wires, plugs and screwdrivers
The 4 escape doors
After the lesson, teams unlock four doors by solving science puzzles. Each door gives one part of the final code.
