Static Electricity and Wind Turbines

We have continued to learn about electricity this week. We explored making static electricity using balloons and rubbing them fast to generate enough energy for them to hang onto the wall without sticky tape or blu tac. We also watched a video about how electricity can be made from wind so we made our own wind turbines. The children decided do a wind turbine parade and had great fun parading around the classroom with their wind turbines. We also  discussed how power cuts can affect our lives and what we would miss if we didn’t have electricity. What would you miss if you didn’t have electricity?

Emily – We’ve been looking at static electricity with balloons.

Ellie – We made posters about electricity using the ipads using pic collage.

Matthew – We had to take a picture then we went onto to pic collage and you write your name and you write a sentence about how to be careful with wires.

Lewis- We used the static electricity, we rubbed the balloons on our arms, heads and jumpers.

William – We made electricity by making it with balloons.

Fyfe – The balloons stuck to the wall because we made enough electricity to stick to the wall.

Summer – We made the balloons make our hair go up and it was funny.

Reece – We made wind turbines because they make electricity.

Maxwel – When we had made our other posters we made some on paper. When we made the ipad it was the bestest thing than the paper.

Max – I made a big building in the construction area last week at golden time.
