Electricity assembly
1. Good morning and welcome to our class

plug and is pushed into a socket.

electricity stored inside them.
6. We explored the classroom to find objects that
use electricity.

mains electricity. You have to make sure the
batteries are put in something the right way
round.
8. The roamer uses batteries that can be
recharged. - move roamer.
9. A clock uses batteries.
10. My remote control car needs batteries.
11. My leapster has four batteries.
12. A battery makes the torch work.
13. We sorted lots of objects into groups.
14. Electricity makes things move.
15. It makes things heat up.
16. It makes things light up.
17. Some things make sounds.
Children hold up painting or object and move into the group set, freeze, then
go and sit down.
Song- This little light of mine.
18. We are going to tell you a story now about
staying safe in the home.
19 . This is a story about Little Miss Safe. One
day she decided to visit some friends, so she put
on her best clothes, sensible walking shoes and
her coat with reflector strips.
She walked out of her semi-detached house,
switching on her security alarm and locking her
front door. She soon left her house in Safetown
and arrived at the home of Mr. Dizzy.
He opened the door in a real dizzy state. He was
making toast in his electric toaster when one of
the pieces of bread had got stuck.
“What shall I do?” he cried, “Shall I use a knife to
get it out?”
“NO! NO!” shouted Little Miss Safe, “a toaster is
a place where you might touch electricity, using a
knife is not the answer!”
Don’t touch the wires, you’ll risk your life,
electricity will go through the knife, switch off
the power, use your head or you will get toasted,
not the bread!
She said goodbye to Mr. Dizzy and went on her
way to visit Mr. Tall and Little Miss Tiny. Mr. Tall
opened the door and said “Come in, Little Miss
Safe”.
She followed him into the kitchen where Little
Miss Tiny was trying to reach for the kettle, to
make a cup of tea. She shouted, “STOP! STOP!
There is electricity running through those wires
above your head. There are dangerous things like
hot kettles, burning irons, a cooker with red hot
rings. Don’t reach up, leaves the wires alone,
kitchens are a danger zone. Mr. Tall finished
making the tea.
After a while, Little Miss Safe waved goodbye to
Mr. Tall and Little Miss Tiny and went on her way
to visit her good friend Mr. Daydream.
At Mr. Daydream’s house, she knocked on the door
and found that he was just running himself a hot
bath. In his hands he was holding his CD player.
NO! NO! She exclaimed. Don’t take that into the
bathroom, water does not mix with electricity, you
must not touch anything electric while you have
wet hands. Electricity can kill, or make you very,
very ill.
Little Miss Safe waved good bye to Mr. Daydream.
She was so glad that she visited her friends and
saved them from dangers, but she was happy to go
back to her house in Safetown. What an
adventure!
20. Here are some safety posters that the
children made together. Stand up and show
them please.
21. PoemsThe Toaster
A silver-scaled dragon with jaws flaming red
Sits at my elbow and toasts my bread.
I hand him fat slices, and then, one by one,
He hands them back when he sees they are done.
The message
This message to you we want to make clear,
So listen carefully, we want you to hear.
Don’t put fingers in electric sockets
Keep them firmly in your pockets.
Keep them away from boiling pans
You could get scolded on your hands.
Do not play near electric fires,
Clothes could catch fire on the wires.
Wet hands and electricity do not mix
Dry them first or you will be in a fix!
Toasters, kettles, microwaves take care,
Cookers, hair driers can give you a scare.
Irons can burn you and take off your skin
Then you would shout and make a loud din!
Electric hedge trimmers and mowers too,
Could be dangerous tools to you.
Adults ONLY should touch these things,
Children should play and sit on their swings.
TV’s, computers, play stations too,
Take care and it will be fun for you!
22. Prayer
Let us pray,
Dear God,
Please keep us safe from all the dangers around
us,
Amen.
