Static P1's

11th Jan 2019

We used our party balloons once again on Friday to carry out a 'little Science' experiment.  We rubbed our balloons against either our hair or our trousers and predicted what may happen if we then put the balloons against some different materials (pepper, paper and glitter).  "It's going to pop!" exclaimed one of the girls putting her fingers in her ears.  Lots of wonder and awe at the balloons pulling and lifting the materials towards them.   "It's like a magnet!" stated one very excited P1 boy.  #staticelectricity#sciencesurroundsus.
