This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS1 Science for children aged 5 and 6 in years 1 and 2. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with energy, electricity, bulbs and batteries.
In school you will have learned about electricity, switches, batteries and bulbs. It is very useful. Electricity powers bulbs and keeps our lights on. It runs our televisions and computers, and makes our fridges work. Electricity can be turned on and off by switches. Some things need batteries to work. Batteries store energy. But the energy in batteries does run out. These questions are about using electricity.

The bulb lights up when the electricity can go all the way round the circuit
|
The electricity goes through the wires, but the energy comes from the battery
|

What will happen if Alice puts the wire back again? - The bulb will light up again

So, one light is on, and one light is off
|
Always put batteries in the right way round
|

A flat battery has lost all its stored energy
|
Mobile batteries are very small, but they store energy - just like other batteries
|

Less energy means lower bills and it uses less electricity
|
Remote controls need energy to work. They have batteries inside them
