Key Facts Vocabulary Northern and Southern hemisphere I can locate the Equator on a map and globe. I can locate the Northern Hemisphere on a map and globe. I can locate the Southern Hemisphere on a map and globe. I can name some of the countries on the Equator. I can tell you more about one country. Longitude and Latitude I can identify lines of latitude and longitude on a map  I can identify a location on a map when the latitude and longitude Compare the Arctic and Antarctica I can find the North and South Poles on a globe or map. I can identify the Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle on a globe or map. I can compare daylight hours in the UK and polar regions. Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn I can identify the location of the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. I can identify differences and similarities between the UK and the tropics. I can describe the climate in the tropics. Greenwich Meridian Time differences I can identify the location of the Prime Meridian. I can tell you why one Prime Meridian was needed. I can tell you why the Prime Meridian’s location was chosen. I can tell you more about one country on the Prime Meridian. I can tell you why day and night occur. I can tell you why we need to have time zones. I can find the local time in another city using time differences. Compare UK with other countries I can compare two countries Physical and Human features Vocabulary Arctic Polar region in the Northern Hemisphere Antarctic Polar region in the Southern Hemisphere Africa Continent South of Europe Asia Continent Right of Europe (Largest) Australasia A continent south of Asia, between Indian and Pacific Oceans Northern Hemisphere North of the Equator Southern Hemisphere South of the Equator Continent One of Earth 7 major land masses Longitude Vertical Lines around the world Latitude Horizontal Lines around the world Equator Line dividing the Northern and Southern Hemisphere Tropic of Cancer is the most northerly circle of latitude on Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead.  Tropic of Capricorn is the most southerly circle of latitude on Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead.  North America Continent including US and Canada South America 4th Largest continent below North America Europe The Continent the UK are apart of, including Germany, Italy and many others Greenwich Meridian The home of the timeline and where times around the world are set. North and South Pole The northern and southern most points of Earth Coordinates A set of values to help find a location Ocean A body of water dividing large land masses.

Key Facts Vocabulary What is Electricity To understand what electricity is, Friction/Static where it is used and how we get it. Electrical Safety To understand how to be safe and the dangers of Electricity Circuits and Components To understand what a component is. To be able to match the symbol to the correct component, To be able to draw circuits using the correct symbols. To think about what a circuit is. To be able to create a working circuit. To add further components to a circuit. Conductors and Insulators To understand what insulators and conductors are. To be able to name conductors and insulators used in everyday life. To be able to use prior knowledge to determine an insulator or conductor. Experimenting with Circuits To understand the question that is being investigated Investigating Circuits To be able to explain how a circuit can be changed. To give appropriate explanations about why the circuit has changed. Vocabulary Electric circuit circuit: an electrical device that provides a path for electrical current to flow Charged of a particle or body or system; having a net amount of positive or negative electric charge; "charged particles"; "a charged battery" - having an electric charge Neutral description of an object that has equal amounts of positive and negative charges Electric current steady flow of charged particles Static electricity an imbalance of electrons. Stationary electric charge, typically produced by friction, that causes sparks or crackling or the attraction of dust or hair Insulators electrons are allowed little movement. They have tightly bound valence electrons (ex. Glass) Conductors electrons are free to move easily - 2 types of conductors. most metals are conductors and non-metals are insulators (ex. copper) Battery set of cells connected together Switch A device for making and breaking the connection in an electric circuit  ___/ ____ Series circuit circuit in which there is only a single pathway for the current so the same current passes through all the components Parallel circuit circuit in which the current can flow in two or more paths Fuel cell primary cell that generates electricity directly from a chemical reaction with a fuel Alternating current (AC) current that flows back and forth 60 times per second; this is the current used in homes Alternators A generator that produces an alternating current Direct current (DC) current that flows in only one direction
