Static electricity: free Boardworks KS3 presentation

Welcome back! We wanted to start the term by reminding you about the upgrade to Boardworks KS3 Science, which has been fully updated to match the new 2014 KS3 Programme of Study.

To help you get a feel for what’s included in this upgrade, we’ve provided a set of free resources on static electricity!

This presentation provides the historical context of Michael Faraday’s “lines of force”, before expanding on this theory and why it was later proved incorrect. By demonstrating the true shapes of electric fields through interactive drag-and-drop activities, students can see for themselves how positive and negative charges affect electric fields.

Download the resources today – they’re available free on our science free stuff page!

Regards,

The Boardworks team
