Science Year 6
Electricity
Link investigative science to Core Values – perseverance, working together and being reflective
Pupils should be taught:
·  associate the brightness of a lamp or the volume of a buzzer with the number and voltage of cells used in the circuit
·  compare and give reasons for variations in how components function, including the brightness of bulbs, the loudness of buzzers and the on/off position of switches
·  use recognised symbols when representing a simple circuit in a diagram / Computing
Link to prevent- safety, global connections, working collaboratively
Pupils should be taught:
To communicate
·  select, use and combine a variety of software (including internet services) on a range of digital devices to design and create a range of programs, systems and content that accomplish given goals, including collecting, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information
To connect
Collaborate with others online on sites approved and moderated by teachers.
• Give examples of the risks of online communities and demonstrate knowledge of how to minimise risk and report problems.
• Understand and demonstrate knowledge that it is illegal to download copyrighted material, including music or games, without express written permission, from the copyright holder.

Forces
Link investigative science to Core Values – perseverance, working together and being reflective
Pupils should be taught:
·  explain that unsupported objects fall towards the Earth because of the force of gravity acting between the Earth and the falling object
·  identify the effects of air resistance, water resistance and friction, that act between moving surfaces
·  recognise that some mechanisms, including levers, pulleys and gears, allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.
Design and Technology
Design and Technology (control)
Pupils should be taught:

Design

§  use research and develop design criteria to inform the design of innovative, functional, appealing products that are fit for purpose, aimed at particular individuals or groups
§  generate, develop, model and communicate their ideas through discussion, annotated sketches, cross-sectional and exploded diagrams, prototypes, pattern pieces and computer-aided design

Make link to core values – perseverance

·  understand and use electrical systems in their products [for example, series circuits incorporating switches, bulbs, buzzers and motors]
·  apply their understanding of computing to program, monitor and control their products.

To master practical skills. Electricals and electronics

Create circuits using electronics kits that employ a number of components (such as LEDs, resistors, transistors and chips).

Evaluate link to core values – reflective

§  investigate and analyse a range of existing products
§  evaluate their ideas and products against their own design criteria and consider the views of others to improve their work
understand how key events and individuals in design and technology have helped shape the world / History
