Today we spent our time exploring the world of electricity. This post was the introductory day to electricity therefore we spent most of our time doing mini experiments.
We first demonstrated static electricity by rubbing a orange balloon on Austins head. (This balloon was later used on probably 15 students therefore i feel this experiment was highly unsanitary.)
We next demonstrated electricity by rubbing bunny fur to create a "magnetic" charge that would pick us crumbs.
By rubbing plastic and silk the plastic rod was able to pick up bits of paper.
The last experiment was showing how water bent because it was attracting to the certain charged rod.
These experiments demonstrated how opposites attract.
This concludes my blog post. This day was more about experiements that have to be seen rather than heard
PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS WONDERFUL POST!
