This week we began to learn about electricity and how to be safe around it.  We carried out experiments with balloons and different types of paper to see if we could create static electricity.  We rubbed the balloons with our jumpers then held it above different types of cut paper and were amazed to see the lighter types of paper jump onto our balloon.  When we wet the balloon with water it got rid of the static electricity and the paper didn’t jump onto it.  Next week we are going to be making electrical circuits.
