It's Electric!

In science class this morning, the 5th graders learned all about creating electricity and the difference between conductors and insulators.  The students conducted an awesome experiment using batteries, wires, and a variety of objects to make a small ‘motor' spin.  One group of students found that a paper-clip and steel sheet caused an electric current, making the motor spin, but the popsicle stick and piece of yarn did not.  Once again our HAMC students had a great time learning about science!
